Dealing with coral aggression.

[Raising Reef.]

I just started a new build and I have a bunch of different corals. A few chalices, some leptoseris, a few euphillias (2 torches, a wall hammer and an octospawn), some Zoas, a few mushrooms, some acros and some montipora. I also have one hydnophora. I'm looking for the right placement where flow will push the hydnophora sweepers away from any of my other corals... It's a tricky balance in a mixed reef. All are small frags now in a 180g tank so there is a ton of room but I foresee issues if I don't work diligently on placement now at the begining.

It’s something often overlooked when first placing corals all the attention is on finding a position in the right light with the right flow and being to close to a potential nemesis is often not given a second thought until later when you have to start moving things apart or continuously fragging
