Can wall hammers be right next to branching hammers?

Just curious if they'll get along or attack each other.

Hammers and frogspawn can coexist and touch. If they’re into that . :)

Kk... Just wasn't sure if this was a stringer or something. Wall hammer is a new addition, just a day or two ago. Maybe he's still acclimating? Put him next to a very large branching type hammer that's been doing very well for the past 3 months.

looks to be just slime ,but again better safe than sorry ;)

That just looks like some slime. They typically will emit that when you first put them in the tank as they acclimate. I usually turkey baster it away and suck it up to clean it up.

Interesting. I have wall/branching and frog all together and touching. No issues.

That was my initial thought, but I thought I'd ask to see what others with more experience say. I'm pretty new to these types of corals.

Hey great! I just didn't know, I've been told hammers and frogspawn can get along, I just didn't want to assume the two different hammers could as well. I wanted to place him next to the other hammer because he's doing so well I figured this new one would be happy there too! I think he's still just recovering from his encounter with UPS
