Any Genus Euphyllia (Frogspawn, Hammer etc) corals can send out sweeper tentacles and sting nearby corals. From past experience, they usually win the battle. I can also see your Bubble is receding away from your Hammer.

You have to move one or the other. It might have been fine for 6 months but the Hammer is obviously growing outwards and now needs more room.

Hammer are pretty strong. I would give them a little more space between each other cause like said earlier they have long sweeper tentacles that can damage.
