question on coral touching each other

[Budman's Corals]

If a frogspawn coral touches a birdsnest,will it hurt either?

 

[Ecvernon]

Absolutely. Don't let them touch. I think the frogspawn will kill the birdsnest

 

[Budman's Corals]

will it just kill the ends if it touches or the whole thing

 

[Ecvernon]

Frogspawn will start by killing the tips. Overtime the frogspawn will extend sweeper tentacles(current polyps can get longer about a few inches than normal) And try to reach closer.

 

[Ecvernon]

It kills where it makes contact. In my experience if its a full colony it may die just on one place. If a mini colony or frag the siting tissue could spread to the whole piece.

Id say move one or it will be bye bye birdie...

I had a frogspawn destroy a few frags and mini colonies before. It is like a disease and can spread fast. Don't risk it.

If the frogspawn reaches out to that birdsnest, the frogspawn will kill it..
