Are these two rhodactis too close?

Ive had this forest fire rhodactis about 1 year now, it hasnt grown much, maybe developing a second mouth after 9 months. Is it better if i move it elsewhere so its not touching its neighbor?sometimes the neighboring rhodactis shade the forest fire a bit

A little update, Now the forest fire is extremely shrivelled up, while all my other mushrooms are perfectly fine. Parameters are still pretty stable, 5-10 nitrate, .01-.08 po4.

I tried inspecting for pests but not sure I saw any, unless there are some very tiny aptasia or something hiding underneath it...

Any ideas?

Hard to tell from the pic, are they both rhodactis, or is one a ricordea?
If different, maybe move 1.

That forest fire is definitely getting covered up. If it is shriveling up, maybe it is planning on making a move?
