Neon Pineapple tree coral and white pompom Senia

[Nimboli12]

Can someone tell me about Neon Pineapple tree corals and the white PomPom Xenia Coral? Ive read they are pretty easy to keep. Is there anything about them that need extra care?
Thanks

Xenia are like weeds. They grow really fast. Great beginner coral

The pineapple tree coral can also grow to weed like proportions, they are a type of kenya tree

How would one keep them in control or cut back? Would you suggest them ? or, no.

for xenia, just make sure they stay on their own rock/area, i would just pass on the kenya tree

Thank you !:)

Oh, about zenia, how do I make sure it stays on its own rock? Do I keep cutting it back w/scissors? Do they stay white?

if you cut it back, the little stump that remains will grow back, so what I did was get in there right before i cut my nails and you can peal off the xenia from the base.
