Hammer vs. Frogspawn vs. RBTA


I have a hammer, frogspawn, and red bubble tip anemone all near eachother (within a few inches, sweeper tentacles sometimes touching eachother). Will this effect the anemone negitively, or are they all resistant to each others "stings"?

The hammer and the frogspawn may be OK touching, but the anemone could (will?) kill either or both. I have a small rbta (about 6") and the tentacles can stretch out to 4 or more inches any time. You should move everything live in the tank at least 6" away from the anemone if possible.

I had a similar situation. My BTA was growing and getting closer to the hammer everyday. I decided to move the hammer to the other end of the tank and now the BTA has exploded in growth. The BTA hasn't moved but now takes up its original location and the area where the hammer was.
