    I got an empty snail shell a while back with a kenya tree and two seperate leathers attached to it. I have two dilemmas. First, will they harm each other being that close to each other? Secondly, I kinda think they look cool all together on the shell like they are, but I also kinda want to move the coral to different places in my tank.

    I'm just not sure if I should break the shell to separate the frags or not.

    Don't mind the diatoms.

    I would seperate them, they are going to grow fairly large no matter what, but they wont have room. My kenya and devils were to close and the devils hand was closing up so i moved the kenya so now he is better.

    So you would destroy the shell? (not that the shell is important to me)

    looks like their both doing fine...if you want break the rock and move them, but i would just let it be..i have corals growing all around everywhere of each other, they will grow away from each other.. or however you wanna say it, as long as they are both getting lights its all good..
