Good morning All! So i have a question for those in the know. As the title implies, I currently have a very happy torch, and a friend in bringing me an orange 2 head octospawn on Monday. SO the question is how close/far can these 2 be from one another? Room for growth, etc. My torch is just 1 head currently, but seems very happy so I will not move it, but I would like to put the octospawn in the same general vicinity if possible.

hi! If your torch is sending out any sweepers I'd go 3" from that point. If it doesn't have any sweepers yet I'd go 6". Of course, these distances are not necessary if you just put the octo higher or lower than the torch, as they cannot sting downwards :)

Basically, just don't let them touch and you'll be perfectly fine

Got it, thank you.
