Xenia's not only growing - it's moving!

Anyone else run into this? Here's a series of photos - August, September and today showing what this xenia's doing. It's carefully attached itself to the rock above, and then let go from the orignial rock. Instead of 1 large trunk, I now have 3 more slender trunks, in 3 different places.

Very common for Xenia, and another way it succeeds in taking over a reef!

That is normal for Xenia. It will do better with even higher light when it move up to near the light.
