The two on the left just came in today so theyre upset from travel but was wondering if its safe to place them this close together or will they stink each other.
1 is a Dragon Soul Torch
1 is a Zombie Fat Head torch
1 is a 24K golden Fat Head torch
And the other is Unknown torch.
Im not sure how to differentiate between origins Ive just heard some torches will sting other torches depending on origin while others wont care if they touch.

Torches can touch torches but nothing else.

Most of the time yes but I've had issues on rare occasions with ausi, Malaysian and indo in close proximity. Specially a rasta torch got bullied out by the other 2. Tried it twice same results. It wasn't a stinging issue but more of the dominant corals wanting the space it seemed.
