ok so i’m trying to make a chalice garden and i forgot some species of chalices attack each other and i was wondering if i can put all four of these on the same rock

my cloudberry which is a echinophyllia but what confuses me is they don’t look the same is that just how some of them are or is it a different species and same with this last one

this one was the same species i just can’t figure out the name right now but it was listed under echinophyllia as well

so my question is are these all the same species and ok to be next to each other or no
 
One aspect that newcomers to corals won’t be aware of is their aggression. Chalice corals are highly aggressive towards any other chalice, especially when they’re in tight quarters. Only a few have sweeper tentacles that they can extend, but when they do they can do a lot of damage to each other.
Placement is key if you have multiple chalice coral–keep them away from each other and your tank should remain peaceful.

yea i know they are highly aggressive and everything and i’ve seen chalice gardens before and they have them close together and one not even being the same species and i have only noticed sweepers from the one that isn’t any of these i’m just wondering if it would be better to place these on the rock and switch out the other one so they are all the same species and maybe less aggression

That may work

The last coral looks to be a cherry Garcia chalice usually sold by same venders that sell cloud berries. I got both of mine from @TCK Corals
