frogspawn

[lilduud]

so i have two different types of frogspawn [green with purple tip, and ?brown with green tip?] anyway today i glued the together at the branch because one had an extra long branch while the other was just a stub.. anyway it looks very nice BUT my question is will they hurt eachother if they touch? the iffy one almost looks like it could be torch but ive never seen it extend to that length before and i was told it was a spawn. any advice helps! thanks in advance!

I've been told 2 hammers can be placed right next to eachother,so i don't see why frogspawns couldn't be

 

[lilduud]

thanks... two different types of hammer though?

 

[OhNoNemo]

I don't see why not,they're all in the Euphyllia family
I do know my hammer stung my mushrooms pretty good(obviously i moved them)

You'll be just fine. Like Nemo said they're all euphyllia and will not harm each other.

That's what I thought when I put my hammer and torch together...needless to say the torch is much farther away now...I have a feeling you would be ok if they are two frogs though.

 

[lilduud]

alright thanks for everyones input :)

The brown one actually looks like a torch to me.

Frogspawns and hammers can be mixed, but torches will sting other euphylias.

that was the issue is that i dont know if its a torch or frogspawn... i was told it was a frogspawn by my friend who has no reason to lie to me an they got it from a reputable lfs [ironically the same day they bought a torch coral] so maybe they bought two torches? or is there any frogspawn that looks like that?

Looks like a torch to me. If it has more than one blob on each tentacle it's a frogspawn, if not it's a torch.

 

[Bifferwine]

It's not that someone lied to you. It's just that they didn't know. They can be confusing -- they often times look alike, especially when they are small.

What gives it away as a torch is that it doesn't have multiple branches and nubs coming off of each stalk, and the tips are round and uniform in shape and size.

 

[lilduud]

hmph well it does appear that there is only one ball at the end of each tentacle... so im concluding from the info on here that its a torch.. soooooo should i break the frag back into two pieces? hah

 

[the reef kid]

Yup, and keep them away from other corals, euphyllias are mean.

That one IS a torch.While you can have 2 torches touching,you cant place a frogspawn or hammer next to them.

Thanks for the info. I thought that they can all be mixed together. Good to know I was wrong for future reference. :bowdown:
