Perc hurting hammer??


I just got a true perc today and I just noticed its trying to host in my green hammer coral. Its cool but 1) that hammer belonged to my yellow clown goby before and 2) Im afraid it might be harming my hammer cause its not opening al the way i think. So can I get a frogspawn for my yellow clown goby to chill in or will it get eaten??, and will the perc harm my hammer by hosting it??

The clown may hurt the hammer but it also may get used to it

a frogspawn is in the same family as the hammer so if the goby was fine in the hammer then it should be fine in a frogspawn

Hammers and Frogspawn can be close but keep both of them away from any other corals

It has been a month. Sometimes my torch will just look bad for a short period of time, sometimes it looks glorious, and sometimes it looks fine. For how long has it been looking not so good and is it possible to post a pic? It is either used to the clown or not at this point. Perhaps something else has irritated it.
