Orange Plate Coral...

[cuckoochews]

Just purchased an orange plate coral and was wondering if it would sting my green plate coral or vise-versa if they are near each other. They are both short tentical plates(Fungia repanda) and are considered semi-aggressive... Are they tolerant of each other?

I've seen the SW LFS in our city keep all their fungia plates really close to each other in their display tanks (only 2inchs apart). They did not looked stressed at all after being that close for 3 weeks or so.

I don't think it would be a problem.

Thanks for the input Cliff... I was not sure. Its still small, but my green plate grew so fast, I didn't want them stinging each other.thumbs2:
