Rhizo aggression?

Hi,

I just got a rhizo!! :D I know they are pretty aggressive, but how far away do neighboring corals need to be from the tentacles?

I'll post pictures as soon as it's in the tank!!

There it is acclimating!! Not a great picture, and not the healthiest specimen, but I'm happy. :D
 
Depends on how far it opens and how much flow you have going on, I keep everything 4-5 inches away to be safe, I know some people's expand farther than that. If you keep an eye out at night, especially after a feeding you will get an idea of the reach. Can't wait to see your's open and happy looking, should be sweet!

Thanks! My BC 29 is stuffed, but I rarely see them local, so I figured I would pick it up at a good price.

So as long as their tentacles aren't touching other corals, they're okay?
