Favia Sweepers

How long are the sweepers on favias and favites? I'm trying to determine how much distance to give it and other corals.

Depends on the species but I'd give at least a few inches of space around just to be safe.

I had a 1" Favites frag 2"-3" from a large toadstool leather, and the toadstool was not happy. I would make it 4" minimum.
