Duncan vs Euphyllia

[LbulletM]

Couldn't find a good answer on this. Duncan next to hammers and frogspawns? Yes or no?

Excuse my brevity. Posting from my phone in front of the tank haha.

I wouldn't let them touch.

Thanks! Now to get wet and glue down all of my new frags!

I feel like if the duncan is touching the frogspawn/hammer you might be able to get away with it for a time, but eventually your luck will run out. I had a trumpet coral near a frogspawn and for about a week they were absolutely great. Then i woke up one day and the trumpet had gotten stung by the frogspawn causing the skin to peel. Needless to say, i moved the trumpet.

Went ahead and glued him down well away from the Euphyllia garden.

Pictures? Sounds like you have a Bomb Euphyllia garden!

Haha not quite bomb, yet, but bomb in the making! Still all frags. Hoping to pick up some splatters or neons at our frag swap in a couple of weeks. The peach frogspawn is only in the front temporarily (I have another in the back). I had a splatter and a neon, but both brown jellied within days of shipping. They didn't like something in my tank at the time, and I'm suspecting high nitrates that I had, although all of my other Euphyllia were and are thriving. (Sorry they're not color corrected, just some quick shots from my phone)

Teal hammer in front left, temporary peach frogspawn in the middle, green frogspawn and yellow hammer behind that in the middle, green with blue tip frogspawn on the right, and permanent peach frogspawn hiding wayyyy in the back.

The Euphyllia garden is on the left rock. You can also see the purple torch with neon mouth in the front left corner and another purple torch in the center sand bed still acclimating. The Duncan's all by its lonesome on the left side of the right rock, about half way up - over top of, and in front of, my Candy Canes.

And this is what that (to me) huge frogspawn looked when I first got it.

I have Duncan's and Torches next to each other without any issue.

My frogspawn and Duncans are right next to each other, but they don't touch. At some point they will touch, and I will have a definitive answer to your question :)

Hahaha I look forward to it!

 

[AllSignsPointToFish]

Here's the standoff today :)

 

[LbulletM]

Should we start taking bets? Looks like they should be in different weight classes.

 

[Beerman]

Mine touch with no problems.

 

[puffer420]

So what was the outcome. I'm in thia situation now. Hammer and duncun getting pretty close

 

[Fatjim]

Bump lol 2020 should be plenty of time to tell

I’ve had Duncan’s touching hammers and frog spawn and they were fine, not near a torch though as that combination didn’t work for me.
