Hello All!
 
I have a nice colony of green/purple zoas. As you can tell by the picture, I have some yellow polyps that have attached in their area.  Questions:
 
1.  Will they harm/bother my zoas?
2.  Should I move them, if so, what is best way?
3.  Will the Zoas bother the yellow polyps?
 
On a slight different subjext, do leather corals sting their neighbors?  Something is knocking the snot out of my Xenias..the only thing close is a couple of leather toadstools and Devils hand.
 
Thanks in advance!

Pretty much any coral can or will sting another. Sometimes they don't but they all certainly can.

The yellow polyps will reproduce much faster than your zoas therefore they will probably take them out. You can always kill them off a head at a time with a syringe and vinegar if need be
