Yeah I think it definitely could be. Little hard to tell because it's such a small frag but the guy did say it was either a euphylia or related to euphylias. Maybe just got the names flipped around. I have a couple hammers and a frogspawn all right by eachother and wouldn't mind continuing the euphylia garden. Would it be safe to put it close to them once it's bigger? I know they are supposed to be resistant to stings from members of the same family.
No it's not part of the euphyllia family, it's part of the Euphylliidae (edit: I mean they are related but they are different branches). It's a different species and is very aggressive so if you put the galaxea with your hammers and frogspawns, the galaxea would more than likely win the battle.
Funny enough, I just saw it's sweeper tentacles out a few minutes before getting this notification. All other corals are a couple inches out of it's reach or more, but there's a feather duster worm right next to it. The galaxea seems to like it's spot, and the worm has been there since I set up the tank and done really well there. Do I need to move one or can the worm handle it?
Man I never had galaxea but I don’t trust that stuff near literaly anything. My LFS keeps them feet away from any other coral in the frag rack. And feather dusters arent known for their defensive capabilities.
