Waving Hand, Thick Stem Pom Pom


Family: Xeniidae

Description: The polyps are not retractable, but do have the distinctive eight-leaved tentacles associated with all of the members of this family. They are colonial animals, and form a creeping mat. Some have thicker stems and when several polyps are present on their leathery base, they resemble a cheerleader's pom-pom.

Care: Low to average water flow with PC or MH lighting.
Been in captive since 10/07. Will start propagation on 12/07.
