will my clown hurt my coral?

I had to get rid of my toad stool because it was way to big. The only problem was my clown lived there. Now that it's gone my clown is trying to host in my candy cane coral. He keeps diving in it.
It only has 4 heads and one isn't doing so hot.(After I got rid of the toadstool I moved things around. I didn't realize one of the heads was facing my back wall and probably not able to get good flow).
Could he hurt the candy cane and if so, what can I do?

how big is the clown vs the candicane?
candicanes are not meant to host clowns as far as i know.. i mean, te heads are quite small no?
why didn't you frag some of the toadstool off for your clown before getting rid of it?

I didn't know how, I was too chicken to, my tank is only 12 gal and someone said it was messy and wouldn't suggest doing it in small tank.
Here's a pis of my tank before the move

Here's a pic after. You can see the candy cane coral on the right. sorry the fish is blury.
 
Nice
I would definitely keep an eye on the candy cane because the clown will probably be rough on it. You may have to make a decision on which you want more the clown
candy cane.
