perc hosting a branching hammer?

[clayw]

i came home today and my percula was trying to host the branching hammer coral i have in the tank, it only has one good head of sweepers on it. Can anyone give me some insight into whether or not this is ok for the clown, or the coral for that matter...? Im not sure if it will harm the hammer coral or if the coral will sting the clown.

Its fine for the clown but keep an eye on the coral make sure the clown isnt to agro.

The clown is probably fine. I'd be more worried about the hammer getting beat up. You'll just have to observe the hammer and see if it's health declines at all. It might be a good idea to try to separate them.

How do I go about seperating them? It's a 40g tank
