Blasto touching toadstool?

[Tsev03]

These two coral have grown a lot lately and now they r touching. Do I need to move one?

The blast is not all that aggressive, but touching will likely cause the toad stool to release toxins, AKA chemical warfare!!

I would move one if the two corals. The toadstools polyps will iritate the blasto. Thankfully blastos dont have sweepers otherwise your toadstool would get damaged

Ok thanks. I don't know what I would do without everyone here at r2r. I haven't gotten placement down yet.

So I moved the toadstool yesterday. This morning I found it on the sand bed upside down. I must not have glued it very well. It still hasn't opened. Will it be ok

I've had that happen with many corals, never been a problem. Where do you have it in the tank? My neon polyp toadstool loves high light, I have it up pretty high in the tank.

Well right now it's on my sand bed but I'm planning on attaching it just not sure where yet. It was about 4 inches above the sand bed. I've seen how big some of these get so I'm trying to find it a good place

Can I put the toadstool on this rock with a birds nest?

I think it would like it there but eventually it may grow too big and shade the birds nest.

I guess I should put it on its own rock so it's easier to move later if I need to. I really hope I didn't hurt it when I moved it. I think it may have started to grow around the plug and I didn't realize it

 

[leahfiish]

I wouldn't be worried, they are really very hardy

It's opened today. Thank y'all
