It Shifted, it fell and then it broke.

I have to move my hammer because it shifted too close to some other corals and when I tried to readjust it, it fell and the rock it was attached to broke off. So I'm trying to find a new spot for it. So here's my question...can a hammer touch another hammer and a torch or will they burn each other?

i think any euphyllia can touch one another without incident? somebody correct me if im wrong.

IME Branching Hammers and Frogspawn can tough eachother just fine; Ive had issues with Torches touching others (though not all individuals seem to have the same problem).

torch doesn't play well with others, frogspawn and hammer is ok.

Thanks for all your responses. After 45 minutes of trying to fit it back in the hole it fell out of, (less the tonga rock it broke off of) I gave up and put it right between the other hammer and the torch. It sounds like the torch may be a problem so tomorrow I'll be in search of another place on the side of the tank. So why am I always out of super glue when I need it?!
