frogspawn
I am thinking about adding some frogspawn to a 20 gal reef tank(24"x 12"), but am concerned about it harming other corals. What is a safe distance from other corals to keep frogspawn, or is a 20 gal tank too small. Thanks

As long as it's not touching them it should be ok. Give a little growing room and it should be fine. Some do put out sweepers but just keep an eye on it.

I kept one in my 20g before upgrading tanks. That gives it enough room just dont get a large colony. I had it about 4 inches away from other coral. Good Luck they are a beautiful species.

The dangers of frogspawn are blown way out of proportion.
I have a leather coral growing on the back of a frogspawn colony. Proximity to the head is like 2cm. Come to my house and I'll show it to you.
