    I bought a frag of pulsing xenia about a year ago. It was literally one little stock. Now today in my tank I have about 50 frags of it, some growing up my back wall, others on the rocks. I just added another pump to get some more flow in the tank and was wondering if pulsing xenia will adjust to the heavier flow? The flow on my rocks is a lot more strong and the xenia is being pushed around a bit. If it can't adjust I could just pluck it off and trash it but would like to know if it can?

    My xenia loved it when I added another K1 to my 20g they took off so I would say that they do adjust

    It should be fine. If not it'll move. Mine did fine with low/high flow.
