Corals battling for space.

Who do you think will win the fight? Here’s a top down picture of my tank. Softie battle on the bottom SPS battle up top. Also what happens when two montis grow into each other.

Is that Anthellia or Xenia on the bottom of the pic? If Anthelia, long-term I would bet on that softie. It's tough to get rid of - I can't reliably.

Up top it looks like an Anacropora is going up against the Leptoseris. If so, my money is on the lepto. It has short, but potent sweepers when angry. It nukes yellow stone polyps and sympodium in my tank. A very aggressive acro grew into it once, but it fended it off. The acro just started plating over its dead skeleton about 1/4" off the lepto.

Yes! It’s a Xenia coral here’s the link to where I got it if interested

also not quite following with the names. Do you think red or green SPS will win?

In my opinion this and this will Concore..

but you have this which will sting the montis once up to size.

My Xenia use to be so big then the hurricane begins of August left me with out power for two days and it was decimated, left it like this.

that was August 15th. So it’s exploded in growth.
and as for the green SPS I got that a year ago this Black Friday and it looked like this.

those two love to grow. Lol.

Zenia grow ridiculously fast once established.. I feel they are like Aiptasia sorry.

It’s defiantly like a “weed” in the hobby But I love my Xenia and have had it for a while
