How far do vortechs need to be apart from each other considering the magnets? Say an mp40 and mp60 on same side of the glass

The magnets dont care unless they are sticking to eachother.

You want to be more concerned with flow and any dead spots.
 
I have my MP60 and MP40s about 14” apart without issue. Could probably go much closer, not sure why I’d need to though. The 60s are seriously strong.
 
Mines a 150 gallon, only 2by2 feet of space to work with, given the rock work i have , there about 8 inches apart
 
Once in place they are not going to move at all. Take some care when removing for cleaning.
Ok. I thought if they were too close the magnet from one could interfere with the other
