Ok i have a burning question that i need to ask these corals in the wild grow inbetween other acroporas as do many but the one question i have is how well do they do when they touch acroporas , I have mine postioned close to a table acropora and in time they will touch each other.

But what i dont know is how they will interact with each other, In other words which one is more likely to die back than the other.

I like the intermingled effeect of SPS but as the seriotapora is fast growing i dont want it completely taking over the table.

Thanks.

You could always break off a bit a 'introduce' it to the acro to see what happens. I've done this a couple of times more so out of interest.
