How come so many people are afraid to keep galaxia in their tanks? It is arguably no more dangerous to its neighbors than euphyllia is a hammer or torch will run out long sweepers and sting its tank mates also and people know to just give it some space. However when you ask a lot of reefers if they would like a frag of galaxia you get a quick "no that's too aggressive". Would someone have any insight into this to help me understand the fear.

They definitely have a rep for being very aggressive.

IME my galaxia had much longer sweepers and was much more aggressive than any of my euphyllia. I had to get rid of it due to the size it grew to and not being able to put any coral within a one mile radius ;Dead

This one grew to the size of a soccer ball and spawned two more that were baseball sized. Probably the nicest coral I ever had. It had sweepers that were almost 2 feet long but plenty of other coral grew in its vicinity.
