So my nem has gotten quite large (at least a foot across when open) and is now affecting corals. Any tricks like pointing a powerhead at it or something else or do I just need to move the corals?

I currently have something trying to block it b/c it's reaching up and hurting the acros, it's already been sticking to and killing zoas to it's left.

No real tricks other than just giving buffer space, and expect it may get bigger.
GSP and xenia are the only corals I know that seem to handle stings, everything else will lose to the nem if touched/stung
 
Appreciate the advice, I'll have to work on moving them.
 
Yea unfortunately you're gonna have to rehome it if you want to have a mixed reef or get a bigger tank if you want to keep long term.
