I love all euphyllia. In my experience. Hammers and frogspawns can touch. Torches the the aggressive ones and can sting just cause

Idk about that. Ime is hit or miss. I have had hammers together with no issues but torches all seem to have a clear winner. They say the thick tentacle ones can touch others, and thin tentacles can touch thin. Ime that hasn't even been true either. Frogs i never let touch anything.

let’s do the first one through PayPal and what I normally do is pay with any other payment source there after. I’ve been scammed through Zelle and Venmo in the past. PayPal has worked for me every time at least for the refund portion. Trust me you have nice products and good deals I don’t see this being my last transaction with you. Especially with a 200 gallon aquarium coming up in the future.
I think you meant to dm

Torches can touch each other; hammers and frogspawns/octospawns can touch each other; torches and hammers/frogspawn/octospawns can't. The reason why is because torches are Euphyllia while hammers and frog/octos are Fimbriaphyllia, and corals of different genera usually cannot touch
