Is this going to be a problem?

[Junior84]

My frogspawn coral is doing very well but its kinda growing over my zoas is this going to be a issue

Has it stung the zoas yet?

 

[Junior84]

They seem to be opening up then closing so maybe when it touches them they close up but I dont know if it will kill them or not

It may sting them to death.

+1, it will eventually become a problem

Well that would suck ok I'll have to figure something else out. The frogspawn was lower and just didnt seem happy so I bumped him up a little higher in the tank and he seems way happier but now he is growing so big that it's over the zoas now

You could move the frogspawn to the right a little, but it may grow over near them again in the future. Your frogspawn looks very happy though!

Could you move one of the corals?

Went from on the bottom unhappy to up and very happy. Anywhere else that high in the tank has higher flow though

Choices! GSP will grow over to it as well. More choices to deal with.

The zoas are there for good I cemented them down but the frogspawn is sitting on top of the rock the zoas are on so I could move it I guess but he seems so happy lol

I have a special relationship with my GSP .. she was my first coral ever

 

[Junior84]

She has come a long way and survived all my past mishaps with my first attempts at a reef tank

Don't get wrong, growth is success which leads to choices and fragging. It's a very good thing that all reefers strive for! It's not a bad thing at all.

My tank has been going for a year and a half so I'm still and always will be learning but I have definitely been having fun and good success with everything so far

 

[Junior84]

I have been thinking of cutting the frogspawn but I just get nervous with that stuff cause I have never done that before. Anything I have bought I have left it as I got it and placed it in the tank. The frogspawn is on a little platform and it was a V to the structure so if i were to cut it would i just split the V ?

I'd say so. You have what it takes. Keep up the good work, it shows!

If it were me, I'd leave it alone or add some more rock center and give it it's own rock to be on.

Thank you very much I appreciate that. My wife and kids laugh and make jokes saying that I like my reef tank more then them .. haha which isn't the case but I do spend a lot of time with it

 

[Junior84]

Might have to do that thanks for the advice
