So I have an elegance coral on an ugly frag plug that goes on the sand. Figured it's better there since it likes the low flow. Looks like a hermit crab knocked it to the side while I was at work today though.

I had a Hammer Head next to it and the two heads closest to the elegance look really sad. I'm going to move them tonight, but just wanted to see if you guys also agree that it's attacking it. I swear I never see "sweeper tentacles" come out of my LPS, even when I check at night with a flashlight.
 
Yes they shouldnt be touching!! Or even near each other.
 
Yes they are fighting. My elegance has fought every LPS it has had contact with at some point. Elegance corals are aggressive. More so then a hammer from my experience. I would move one of them asap.
 
@SonRK there is a thread talking about corals fighting and who wins .It would be cool if you could contribute to it
