New RBTA heading straight for hammer coral

[kyleinpdx]

Hey everyone, quick question: I just purchased a beautiful rainbow bubble tip, made a nice spot for him with some rock rubble next to a concave part of a rock. Well apparently the RBTA wasnt thrilled with the location and has gone 180* around the rock and seems to be getting close to my toxic green hammer. There is still a bit of distance between the two and the hammer is higher on the rock work but I wanted to get opinions on whether or not the hammer would be able to hold its own if the nem encroached on it or if I need to move some things around? Thanks!

Best to move the hammer if the nem is coming close

Well I decided better safe than sorry, the nem had started climbing up the stalk of the hammer so I fought with it for a good 5 mins or so but got it to release and moved it clear to the other side of the tank. Hopefully I didnt tick it off too much :( and that it acclimates alright...

Might work out but the nem doesn't care where you put it, it'll go where it wants lol
