About this item

Ivory Pulsing Xenia

Ivory Pulsing Xenia (Xenia sp.) is a soft coral prized for its soft ivory white coloration and soothing pulsing behavior. Its delicate, feathery polyps extend into star-like formations, creating a clean, luminous appearance that adds subtle contrast and motion to reef aquariums.

This variety is typically available as a thicker, more established multi-stalk colony, offering immediate fullness and visual impact upon placement. Known for its rhythmic pulsing motion, individual polyps open and close in a continuous, flowing pattern while also helping to absorb dissolved nutrients, making it both calming to observe and beneficial in established reef systems.

Available Options

Single Thick Multi-Colony

  • One thick, established multiple xenia colony
  • Provides immediate fullness and visual presence
  • Ideal for reef and macroalgae aquascapes

Special Considerations

Xenia are known for their rapid growth and ability to spread across rockwork. Placement on isolated structures is recommended to manage expansion. Stable water parameters and moderate nutrient levels support consistent pulsing behavior. Sudden changes in flow, lighting, or chemistry may cause temporary reduction in pulsing or retraction.

🌱 Propagation

Ivory Pulsing Xenia propagates readily through natural fragmentation and colony expansion:

  • Colonies spread by extending tissue across nearby surfaces
  • Fragments can detach and reattach to form new colonies
  • Propagation commonly occurs in aquarium systems
