Hitchhiker Xenia
 
I recently bought a zoa rock, and it came with a few things including these Xenia (?).

they aren't really in any light right now.


1 - Any tips on getting them off and reloacting them?

2- Which type is it exactly?

-Cheers

They were originally white, but haven't had much light in a few days.

Looks like Anthelia to me. They are very adaptable, and usually Very prolific. Put them someplace with moderate light, and almost any current and they should do well for you. Do not keep them near anything you dont want them to overgrow. As far as getting them off there, the safest thing to do would be to chip off the bit of rock theyre attached to. You could just cut them off at the base, but sometimes they dont always recover, and other times the little tissue left on the rock will regenerate anyhow.
