I am going to dedicate one of two islands just for Hammers, Frogspawn, octospawn, and torches.

my question is can they touch each other? I see pictures and videos where they are crammed together. Will they sting and kill each other?

Regarding feeding, I am going to start daily dosing using Red Sea AB+ and going to feed them with reefroids. What time is the best to feed them and how often?
 
the torches can't touch anything. My other euphyllia touch each others. I my feed mine once a month when the lights are on. I'm sure you could feed more depending on your filtration.

how about Euphyllia with mushrooms and other softies such as leather? Can they all touch each other?
 
Meaning it will win the coral war
I see. Then what if there is no more space for zoa or mushroom to grow on rock surface? Do they stop growing? If not, how people trim them without taking a part rock work and frag them??
 
They can't grow without light and being stung all the time. They will grow as far as to where they aren't touched.

so if I have mushrooms or zoas on the base surrounding Euphyllia corals, they will not over take each other and kill one or the other?
 
depends on if the Euphyllia touches them or not. Mushrooms will just release and float to new spot, Zoa's not so much.

ahh wish I knew that they can drift or move around. So there is no way I can isolate them to rock? I am planning not to get any anemone because they move. But now I just got something else that moves lol. My plan not to have anything that move around just failed. Lol

ricordea and Yuma also moves to apparently. I am not big fan of zoas.
