I just got a Pulsing Xenia and am pondering where to place it.... they like moderate flow according to my research, but I want to place it fairly far away from my Branching Hammer... not sure yet...

Here's the current placements...

Probably going to try to keep it out of a constant current (to make it pulse more) and try to position it nearer the top for best lighting... Any other suggestions are welcome!

Glue it to a piece of rubble and put it near the back wall. It will grow up your wall. It grows fast under any kind of light.

What type of adhesive/epoxy do you recommend? I've seen several brands, but have never tried any... I saw some that apparently came in different colors? IDK?

I have it wedged in between several rocks for now. I will find some epoxy or the like tomorrow and more permanently set him up... This is soooo much fun!

Use super glue gel. Glue it to the rock/rubble and leave out of the tank for about 30 seconds. Then put it back in. It want harm your water.

you can put xenia anywhere in your tank really.. they like the water flow as long as its not overpowering.. and if you want to fix that hair algae problem, grab a Lawn Mower Blenny and some turbo snails. are you changing water with R/O?
