Ok. Question. Can different color acan frags be placed close together so they will grow sort of together. I have a rock in center tank that i would like to place a bunch of different color acans on. Will they hurt each other or be ok together? Thanks.

As long as they are the same type. For example lords with lords. I used to have a lord and hillae that we're growing together, however, the hillae was taking over the lord in growth. Echinata can be nasty stingers.

A garden of micro lords is wonderful to see!
