Xenia withering after shipping, what can be done?

[Anonymous]

Small frag of purple xenia. ~4.5 watts/gallon. Temp = 80F Sg = 1.025 Medium current with turnover about 15x tank volume/hr.

I knew ahead of time that xenia was a persnickity shipper. I acclimated it well, as the starpolyps are doing super fine that were in the same bag. Is there anything I can do to help it?

Xenia usually grows like weeds. Just ask around if anyones local and you wont have to ship

I'd just leave it alone for a week or two, it should come around. If you see it start to rot, then I would worry.
