Lps compatibility

Hi all! I've been getting into LPS lately and have a scoly, Lobo, trachy, a few plates and just added yesterday cynarina that isn't fully expanded yet .

My question is regarding how those species may or may not get along with each other based on your experience. I currently have them spaced at least a few inches from each other but wondering if any of them won't mind sharing space with a neighbor as they grow.

Anyone have a Lobo and trachy touching as an example? Scoly and a cynarina? Etc...

My Trachy tried to eat my Scoly and damaged it quite a bit. I would try to keep the different kinds separated enough to allow for them to expand without touching.

I'd keep space between all of them. While some members might have success keeping some together for a bit of time, all it takes is one night and some mesenterial filaments to destroy one another. Tank is looking great man!

^ yeah I had two lobo touching less that 1 day and the bet each other up pretty bad...I would give em space.

My three lobos have grown up against one another with no problems; that said one almost killed a symphyllia which was placed too close for its liking
