I have some hairy mushrooms, frog spawn, and a tourch.
they all have their own spaces at the moment --
but I would like to put things near them. Are there other things that would be safe to be in touching range?

already have leathers that are not bothered.

How sensitive are clams to them?

I would give them space around. I should try and group your corals. Either that or space.if anything that those corals that u listed touch anything else there would most likely be polyps burned and or coral lose.

can similar lps touch each other. for example, can a hammer, torch, and frogspawn all touch without any ill effect?

I've had all three species in close proximity to one another. Every so often, I'd come home and find a sweeper tentacle locked in place in another colony. Amongst these three against each other, the torch is the most aggressive followed by the hammer.

can green bubble coral and frogspon be next to each other?

(I have to much hairy mushrooms- thinking about cutting them back and putting the yummas in there- for some variation)

Absolutely not! I've found that bubble corals are extremely aggressive toward other Euphylliads (Hammers, frogspawns, pearls, etc.).

Here's my Euphyllia yaeyamaensis fighting back against a Bubble coral. The polyps to the right are normal in appearance, whereas the polyps on the left (closest to the Bubble) have changed their form & function to become lethal sweepers :batangel:
