Coral warfare?

[Oohkris123]

I might have a possibility that when my corals get to close I might lose some

The blastos is touching the candy cane, the pink paly looks like it's about to touch the candy cane and xenias. Who wins or backs off? Should I remove these corals apart from them?

I would be concerned with the Xenia, and the pink palys. In my two tanks the palys spread more than the Xenia

I got each paly for 10 a pop so I don't want damage them a lot. And the xenias I cut them and they spread more so I stop

Got it.
The ones directly under the Xenia are highly invasive.
Keep an eye on them.

Wow..ill try and keep them in check since I'm working on doing a garden of zoas

they look and grow great on my overflow! (and scrape off easy.)

What would happen if I cut the paly from the base ?

If you need to kill them, your best off with aiptasia x, or injecting with vinegar or kalkwasser. Much less hassle.

Maybe I'll consider this method later when they get out of control
