The rock my sebae is on also has a gorgonian growing on it. Everything was fine, but it seems my anmone has moved a little and is now stinging the base of the coral. I don't know if the part being stung is dead or not.It's polyps in that spot are not extending, but the rest of it is fine. That's the only spot it can reach. Will this eventually kill the whole gorgonian, or just that part of it? It would be a pain to get it off the rock, but I'll do it if it's going to die.

The anemone will continue to sting the gorgonian and as it grows (and it will) it will completely take over the gorg's space stinging it the whole time.
If it was me I would move the gorg. If the anemone is happy where it is and has not moved around too much it is probably easier to just leave it where it is.
