Have you had success with this in the long term? I saw this and was immediately interested since I would like to do the same. However when I googled it I read an article by Eric Borneman and it basically said the three ways of fusing corals. One being fusing two completely different corals together (which immediately did not work for most corals resulting in rejection. Basically the corals started attacking each other). The other ways were grafting two corals together of of different genetic makeups (or somethign like that) Basically like two different zoas which you did. Here they found the corals did come together but did not last for very long and in the end rejected each other. According to the article the only way that worked was putting two corals together from the same colony (like two branches of the same acro). In this case they found it fused very quickly and lasted.

Anyway has it ever worked long term?
