    It looks like they're fighting to me.

    I wouldn't dismiss the idea that they mostly don't fight, though. I have mine near each other, and the torch regularly touches the FS, but they don't hurt each other.

    I had a torch and frogspawn near each other and they kept a 1" no mans land between them.

    thats interesting. I had a frog and a hammer that were intertwined so well that if they werent different colors, you had a hard time seeing where one stopped and the other started..

    Are you running any carbon? If not the levels of toxins some corals excrete to prevent crowding may be getting high enough to start fights with close neighbors :jester:
