My pulsing xena are covered with little blister like bumps. I've been
slowly bringing the iodine up. Could I have over dosed or is this the sign
of something else?

If they are little bumps on the main stalk, they may be new polyps forming.
Mine does this all the time. The new polyps start to slowly "slide" down
the stalk and attach to the live rock. The tissue connecting the baby to
the mother slowly shrinks away and you have a new little Xenia.
