Corals with octopus?

Killing the time waiting for my bimac I have placed some corals. Zoo, hammer, frog spawn and a couple of brain corals in the tank.

I am wondering if anybody has tried this on this board and whether it affected, or harmed the octopus?

what kind of lights are you running?
I have had a Clove Polyps in with mine since the beginning. Both do not seem bothered by each other. The coral has survived with only t-5 lighting. Luckily the coral is on a large rock so there is no concern of redecorating

Its recommended to not do LPS with cephalopods, but I have had some and found no problems. I currently have a hammer in my cuttlefish tank and Ive never seen any problems with it or signs of any stinging.
