Goniopora vs Milliopora

[AmherstReef]

I've had a pink/red goniopora for two and a half years and in my current reef for the past year and a half. I have moved it all over the aquarium trying to make it happy and it finally is. It has gotten so bushy that its touching the pink milli next to it. The pink milli is also doing well but the areas touched by the goniopora have turned white. The rest of the milli is actually growing away from the goniopora with good growth. There is no way I am moving the goniopora with how well it's finally doing, the question is should I move the milli or continue to let it grow away from the goniopora on its own.

Thoughts?

Goniopora spp. vs. Acropora millepora or Millepora spp. (fire coral)
