Ricordea and Cynarina

I just put a ricordea head near my cynarina (doughnut) coral. It looks like the cynarina is not fully expanded as it usually is. It almost looks like its trying to avoid the ricordea.
Can these two corals be next to each other? I thought they could, but I'm having some second guesses now.

It looks like the cynarina is getting irritated. Just because things aren't poisonous or stingy doesn't mean they can't irritate. I'd try moving it.

I would try moving it ASAP. I had a ricordia yuma killed one of my candycane head. Nice donut btw.

Thanks for the replies. I did move the ricordea last night to a new spot. Actually moved a couple things around :)
However, I think I made a big mistake. This morning, I noticed that on of my ricordea heads actually fell into a hold in the rock I put it on. Instead of leaving it alone, I tried to get it out. I ended up actually ripping the entire head off of the small rock it was attached to.
The head is whole and I placed it in a very low flow area where hopefully it won't move around. What do you think? Does it have any change of surviving? Will it reattach?

Thanks. I'm about to head home for lunch and check up on it.
