I do. GSP and Xenia mostly with a Kenya Tree mixed in. The bubble tips will move and find a spot they are happy with. I also have hammer corals and a few miscellaneous zoa or button polyps. I've not really witnessed any warfare to be honest. In April I upgraded so the bubble tips have a lot more room but I don't think you will have issues.

New tank, upgrade, and moving of the tank has caused me more issues with my GSP and Xenia disappearing. Hammers are also struggling now but I believe it is related to my salinity along with tank maturity. But my 40 had mixtures and per note above everyone was happy.
 
I have several bubble tips as well as rock flowers and mini maxis in my softy tank. Overall things get along just fine, but the bubble tips have killed a couple of small mushrooms and leathers. I try to keep the bubble tips on their own rock.
 
I have a softy tank and have 3 bubble tips.
Works fine, as long as the anemone stays happy and doesn't wander around.
 
I think I last counted 20 BTA's in the tank. I don't keep much coral in this tank. The few in there close up when one shows up in their area.

Pardon the tank. I've not cleaned it in 11 days.

I think the last pic here shows the closure. argh.
