Hi all,

I have an Acan island and the colonies are starting to grow in to each other and in some case overlap. Is this an issue?

I assumed when I positioned them that they would only grow so far as their skeletons allow them to but shouldn't actually grow over each other. I have no experience so not sure if that is correct.

Thanks!
 
Should be fine, acans have strong but very short sweepers that really only come out of their mouths
