torch and frogspawn

[Brad Coughlan]

I have been considering where to place a future torch coral, and it is somewhat close to a frogspawn, I can't find a definite answer as to if torches and frogspawns can touch without stinging and killing each other. What is your experience with these 2 species touching?

- thanks

I don't know for sure but I would think you would NOT want them touching. Torch would probably have easy work of the fs.

Alright then, I will just move the frogspawn away then to avoid contact between them, thanks

Apparently it’s hit or miss, some are fine, but I believe the general rule is, a torch by itself but frogspawn and hammers are fine together.

My experience would be to keep the Torch away from the Frogspawn.

I keep mine separated. They w.i.l.l. go to war. You can safely keep Frogs and Hammers together, but torches are aggressive and should have their space. Even with other corals. I had a torch reach 6 inches to attack another coral. Here’s my placement

Ok cool, thanks for the info

I just moved the frogspawn in order to make space for the torch once I get it, thanks
