    If I put two trac brains next to each other will they sting and hurt each other or will they get along?

    Define next to each other. Brains can be super aggressive with stings but the ones I have had tend to have very short feeder/sweeper tentacles and have been OK with neighbors in close proximity as long as they aren't directly touching.

    Trachyphyllia are one of the least aggressive "brain" corals. They CAN fight but they don't usually develop long sweepers unless another coral is attacking it first.
