torches, hammers and frogspawns

[jh2pizza]

Is it Ok for them to be close to each other without warfare?

[2OceanLovers]

Frogspawns and hammers are fine together. Torches on the other hand have a nasty temper when near other things. They need space between themselves and all other corals IMO.

but, can torches touch other torches?

[2OceanLovers]

Torches can live with other torches, but not with any other corals ime.

I have found that hammer and frogspawn can grow together without any problems. The torch can be close enough to touch both of those types of corals but does not seem to grow well together. When the torch touches frogspawn or hammer corals in my tank in the past they would both retract a little but never has effected either coral (meaning nothing dies or looks poor).

You can see how close I have these corals in my tank from pictures I posted in another forum. Here is the link My 29 gallon (http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1062070&perpage=25&pagenumber=2)
