What is funny is when I first started researching Corals I kept reading about GSP and how bad it was. When I would google it this is all I could find. I knew that wasn't what they were talkinga about but now that I know, I always chuckle now when I see that.

xenia and Hair Mushrooms pics

Here's some pics of my colonies of xenia and hair mushrooms taking over. My Betta decided he wanted to be in one of the pics. He likes to be a show off fish. Quite the opposite of what I was expecting for a betta.

A couple of years ago my tank got over run with pink creeping Xenia and some GSP. I got so sick of it I considered breaking down the tank and starting over...till I heard of Fluke Tabs. One tablet and a week later all gone. IMO, Xenia and GSP are invasive corals.

Wow, makes me a bit worried. I've always liked my mushrooms and GSP but I like the other corals as well!
