      Which type of chalices can touch?

      So my miami hurricane and a pink chalice I have were touching flesh and I didnt think anything of it since they are both chalices. Well I look at them this morning and notice that they are both showing some skeleton at the spot they were touching. I moved them apart but my question now is are there certain types of chalices that are able to touch withou killing eachother?

      Even frags of the same chalice cannot touch. Some stings are much worse than others, but when any chalice touches another chalice they both will get stung.

      So basically I just need to keep space between all of them? Also should I keep everything away from the sweeper tentacles, once lights go out my miami hurricane puts out 6 inch sweepers.

      yes, try to see which ones are sweeping and give them at least that much room between any other chalice, sweeps can really do damage

      Also keep it far from other corals as well. I had an acan colony that i thought was far enough away (like 3 inches). Moved it there and woke up the next morning to see my acan colony completely nuked.

      In this picture you can see some of my chalices, they are not too far apart, but far enough to make sure they have some buffer-room in case a snail bulldozes one and sweepers come out.
