Yeah they are ok. You know sometimes they will pulse and sometimes they wont. And most of the time you cant really tell because of the current anyway. I can hardly ever tell when mine pulse unless i turn my powerheads off during feeding.

I got mine on a frag plug, and leaned it on a piece of liverock so the base of the Xenia was slightly pushed against the liverock, it spread right onto the liverock within a week. It was pretty fast. Good luck!

They do better in higher light, so you may want to superglue the polyp to a rock near the top of the tank so it can't get knocked off again.

Just glue the whole little rock they are on to another rock in the tank.
