Blue Anthelia

I'm looking for as much info as I can find about blue anthelia. I was curious about basic care guidelines, if it was the same as regular anthelia or different? Thanks for your time, Chuck

I was so anxious to post and get responces I forgot to just search. It seems there are quite a few using this common name, blue xenia being one of them

Okay, maybe I'm one of the short bus riders calling it blue xenia. What is this?



I've been letting it blow around in medium flow and feeding DT's to the tank. It's grown noticeably since I shot this picture couple of weeks ago, and I'm hoping it grows on to the rubble placed around it soon.

That's a electric blue anthelia. My gallery has the Blue Cespitularia, aka notorious Blue Xenia.

Sort of. More of a creamy color to me.
