What can acans be placed next to that won't kill them. I know chalices and war coral, but what else.

As a general rule of thumb you do not want corals touching each other, so make sure that they have some room to grow and you should be fine

make sure not to place next to acan echinata's though.... They will not get along well...

just to clarify, chalices like to eat acans, not sure who would win between acans and war coral tho.

generally the uglier corals will win out, so a war coral would be my guess

i beg to differ on a war beating a chalice. Neil had a chalice destroy half of his war coral. im planning on having some lobos and some waso's and a few zoas/palys but mostly im liking acans oh and a chalice or two but will place them more at the end of my tank so the current keeps the stingers on the glass and not on my corals

either way corals will fight so pick wisely and plan on giving them space to grow.
