Bubble tip and fox coral

[brayden]

I just got this fox coral tonight. It has not had a chance to come out yet. Can anyone tell me if it is okay for my bubble tip to touch the fox coral? Will either one of them do the other harm?

they really shouldnt touch. as a general rule, corals and anemones should not be touching, and stationary invert should have an inch or so of space from its neighbor or the chemical warfare used in reefs to give one coral more room to grow will kick in an you will usually end up with damaged animals.
