just wondering,

i had xenia in a reef plug...

when i placed it in my tank, here comes my brilliant
damsel... munched it out of the plug,...

the plug is still there an epoxied to the rock...

today, after 3 weeks... it looks like something is growing there...

is it possible that xenia is growing there?

Yes, It will grow back if there is anything left of the colony, as long as the conditions are right.

I have gone through a few of these myself, they start off doing fine, they would actually split. After they split, the original would die Eventually the new ones just died out too.
