So I have a Hammer I just added and a Duncan that’s been in for a while. The Duncan is about 5 inches away from the hammer, but has closed up since I added.
Is that too close?

I also have a bicolor Blenny and 2 clowns that may have irritated it but I’ve never seen them nip.

Salinity is fine, 10% weekly water changes. Just being moody or is it getting stung?

That looks plenty far away to me. Duncans can be moody but I wouldn't expect it to stay closed for more than a few days. How long has it been?
 
Duncans closed up you say? It happens to my colony all the time. There have been a few occasion where I really thought something was wrong. I don't have anything by them and they've been in the same spot for years and years. Sometimes the just close up for no apparent reason. Knock on wood, they've always been fine.
 
Good call guys, 6 days closed then this morning back open like nothing happened. Drama queen
