mandarinfish with brain coral

I am finally putting my mandarinfish into our mature 75g and have been concerned with her safety and a Favia sp. coral in there. The Favia has open mouths and sweeper tentacles at night.

I know that anemones pose a threat to mandarins, but does anyone know if coral sweeper tentacles do? She is the only slow moving bottom fish in there so that's why I'm concerned.

Should not be a problem.

I've had a mandarin in my tank with favia, bubble, hammer, and trumpet corals for about 2 years now. She knows when to stay away and when it's safe.

I have a large open brain and a bubble coral. No problems for the mandarin.
