EUPHYLLIA family ?

[Awibrandy]

I need help from the major gurus here.

My question is can I group frogspawns, hammer & torch corals together with out them harming each other? I would think it not a problem since they are in the same family. Am I wrong?

For the most part, you can group them together. However, I have had torch corals attack both a hammer & frogspawn coral.

 

[Awibrandy]

Thanks Deano! Much appreciate the quick responce. So really better to keep them apart. On to plan "B".

I would place them together at first. In the event there's warfare, simply move the offensive coral to a spot by itself.

That is why the Hammer you gave me looks like a hammer/frog?

actually frogs and hammers have been coming in frequently with mixed appearance. Frogs with hammer like protrusions all over them and hammers with some random frogspawn looking polyps all over their polyp stalks. I've also been seeing a few more mixed color morphs where you get neon pink tips and neon green tips mixed together on the same polyp. Also saw a single polyp in a colony that was perfectly divided down the middle pink and green it was sick looking. The Frogs and Hammers are closely related so I'd imagine, like flowers, they can "cross pollinate" when they are all mass spawning in the wild how can you tell who your stuff is going to fertilize.
