Hello
I've got a small aussie elegance coral specimen that was doing well for around 8 months when i had an unfortunate salinity spike a few months back that made it shrivel and stressed it out, all my other corals made it through the issue, but the elegance never fully recovered and recently slowly started coming back and expanding its polyp when my clown who has an anemone started motor boating the heck out of the poor thing while it was still stressed, the coral is still slightly shriveled and only expands about 25% of what it used to, but for some reason whenever it starts shriveling again my clown leaves its anemone and rough houses it and stresses it even more, should i re home the coral or perhaps is it water quality related? when the coral was healthy it didn't mind the clowns occasional harassment but now it just shrivels and looks terrible.
 
Your clowns are irritating it. I would create an egg crate jail or find it a new home
