    I have a Q about these 2 types i have..

    I have the regular green ones with 6 heads.

    and i have blueish purple ones with 7-8 heads...

    I am wondering if it is okay to put them close to each other and let them grow side by side and touch eachother some..I am running out of room in my 14g and if i can group these together like Acans sorta it would make life a little easier..

    They're not aggressive by nature IME/IMO... Theres a possibility theyll compete for space, but I think you'll be fine just keep an eye on them and make sure they don't.

    Those will be fine. I would not get the ones with the colored centers and brown outside close to the ones that are all the same color. They are different species and could fight.
