How long have you had them?

I’ve never heard of anyone being successful keeping multiple variants of BTAs in the same tank, let alone in that close proximity.

Especially the higher end ones.

2.5 months, the store i got the colorados and chicagos from had them housed together as well. I tossed in a grail and it split. The nems have all grown since purchase and are not showing any signs of decline. Hopefully it stays that way. When i first got them in smaller container

Beautiful nems!

I'd be concerned of the daiso container degrading over time with saltwater and UV exposure. I don't think those containers are PETG, just my two cents tho. And of course the risk of heavy metals leaching from magnets.

The containers are cheap enough where if that occurs its not a big deal, the lfs i got the chicagos and colorados have been using them forever also. Magnets are the reef safe magnets from k and j magnetics

I was wondering the same thing. Even in my 300 gallon some anemonies eliminate others over time.

I have about a dozen Shermans together with three CSB's in a 14 gallon. Needless to say, they're in close proximity and touching. Neither strain appears to be bothered, and they've been together for a couple months.

That said, I would not commingle a newly imported specimen with others.
