This picture shows the damage my babys breath has done to my grape watermelon at night. They both have sweepers going at it but the favia always is winning. The picture isnt the best becuase I suck at taking photos so makes my babys breath look funny but gives the gist of the story. I shouldn't have mounted them so close and should probably pop the favia off.

its amazing how darn aggressive some favias can be, even tho they prob are my fav corals. i always gotta keep some space between them and anything else on my sandbed, cuz i kno how corals can fall victim to those sweepers. beautiful size on that baby's breath by the way, and i'm sorry about the damage. you never wanna see a watermelon get hit like that, especially a grape that large and nice. i would say move one of them asap to avoid any more damage, and let the grape heal without anything around it to bother it.

by the way, GORGEOUS war coral (tyree?) and meteor shower cyphastrea in the background...i love cyphastreas as well, looks like your tank is simply amazing!
 
I had the opposite effect. I had a Juicy Corals Dessert Plate Chalice touch my war coral. Chalice smoked half the War Coral! Straight to the skeleton.
