Hey all, was working on a euphyllia garden, I had this small yellow hammer that was placed with 2 larger fralog spawn and was getting lost. So I placed it next to 2 torch corals I had, I am also starting a torch garden, long story short after 2 weeks this happens, the torches killed on of the heads . Now this hammer is isolated , hoping it heals

Sorry about your coral.
From what I understand, hammers and torch corals can not be placed next to one another.
You can place hammer with hammers and frogspawn with hammers but nothing other than torches with torches.

Yep, this^.
 
I keep my torches frogspawn and hammers right next to each other for about 6 months now with no issue but I have had in the past torches kill my hammer just depends sometimes you get lucky sometimes you dont
 
And not all torches get along either. If the tentacles stick to each other then they're likely stinging and not compatible.
