Stupid question here as I’m new to corals….


Neon Blue Green Toxic Hammer​

Is this poisonous and if so do I need to do anything special to get the toxins out of tank….. is it toxic to handle or will it harm my other hammers or fish….
Sorry for the daft question
 
However I had learned that Hammer corals have long tentacles that can extend out and sting their neighbors. Our hammer at work whacked a Fascination Favia frag and hurt a small portion of it. The favia was at least 7 inches away from the hammer.

So they aren't toxic but they can be "toxic" neighbors.
