    Finally, I feel better now that the new yellow polyps are doing great. I got kinda discouraged after the xenia died:confused: . Ive done some research on them and think they will work great in my lighting, and in my current tank. Anyone else have yellow polyps?

    I've had bad luck with yellow polyps. One bit of advice, those polyps need to be fed meaty foods regularly. Once the colony starts dying, it's really difficult to bring them back.
