Torch Corals Touching Each Other

[tirish]

Just recently purchased a Holy Grail torch and a Dragon Torch. Can these two be close together where they are touching without harming each other? I also have a frogspawn, duncan and GSP. Redoing my aquascape and not really sure what can touch and what cant touch each other. Thanks!

They should be okay to brush each other and nothing else.

The best rule of thumb is to assume nothing can touch. I believe torch's are one of the few exceptions, but I assume you want your corals to grow? They should be given a few inches of space to grow IMO.

^more precise. Brush but they will want their own space to grow

Thanks. Yes I’d like them to grow. I will give them space to allow for growth.

Mine are all close together with a bit of space. They all brush on each other with the water movement.

Torch can touch torch but not the frogspawn or octo or hammer.

I've placed torches a little too close to eachother once, and the bigger one sort of "shaded" and bothered the other to the point where it started to shrink.
