Goniopora Euphyllia Interaction?

[Morpheosz]

What happens when Goniopora and Euphyllia (frogspawn, hammer, not torch) come into contact? I'm assuming it's not good, but curious as I have a couple colonies that are getting close and wondering if I need to relocate someone.

You will need to relocate. Hammers, frogspawn will kill goniopora. Some may have a different experience. In a few cases I experienced, my hammer nuked anyone it could touch.

@Mibu hit it right.

In addition, keep in mind that it's not JUST about them touching polyps/ tentacles. Sweepers can be sent out 2x plus the open width of f/s specifically. About 2x hammers.

Just because they Haven't yet, doesn't mean they won't. A small change in flow or a snail parking at the base could be enough for the coral to feel threatened, and send out stingers that will eviscerate gonis.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, I assumed as much but great to hear the detailed confirmation!
