Including torches in a euphyllia garden

[SOGavity]

I just bought a torch and was told by the store-guy that as long as the skeletons do not touch, a torch can be in the euphyllia garden I have created. I have 5 hammers, 1 frogspawn, and 1 octospawn in this garden and would love my new torch to be among them. I did some research online and there have definitely been some mixed reports. I would love to hear from those who have torch coral experiences with this. The water movement in my tank is a back and forth sway, so either I put him in the garden where the tenticles will touch the hammers or I place him on his own little island.

No the torch will sting the others. Only put torches together.

i have seen people successfully keep torches with frogspawn and hammers but its luck of the draw might sting and kill might not i would advice against it

Torch will kill hammer and frogspawn. And hammer will attack torch. They can not be near. Hammer sweepers can extend 6” if it’s threatened or senses other corals it doesn’t like
