Can these Acans touch ?

[Bent17]

Hi all, was thinking of removing my Acans from the rock work and placing them on stones on the sandbed to try form an acan garden. Not sure if these can be placed touching each other or better not. What do you think?

Acans can definitely touch but you should allow enough room for them to be able to grow and expand.

Depends on what type of "acans" they are. No fast rule.

Looking at those...I think they would be okay to touch. I think the problem you could have is if you have those "fluffy ones" touching an Echinata type coral like this:

I could be wrong....but I think that's where you would have an issue.

Great looking lords by the way (one of my favorite corals!)

Lords can touch, but don't let an Echinata near a Lord (bye-bye Lord).

I was right....wohoo!
