GSP kill other corals?

[downhillbiker]

Will Green Star Polyps grow over my SPS and LPS and kill them or sting them? How worried should I be about that?

I have a couple SPS frags near GSP colonies, and was wondering if they are ok.

I don't know about other corals, but my gsp grew almost a perfect circle around a few mushrooms.

Gsp will do alot of damage to other lps corals--keep them about 6 inches away from neighbouring corals
They won't grow over most sps--because on contact they will get zapped by the sps's

sounds good. i only have sps in the vacinity of the GSP, so i should be ok. i am one of those poeple that doesnt want to overstock corals, but rather let them get huge.

Your GSP will grow out everywhere it can. Be careful. Mine got so big I needed to trim it and give it away. It is very difficult to completely rid the coral from the rock it spread to. Be careful, it is invasive. There are some pix posted that shows it ALL over the tank.
