While I have never had that combo, IME, different species of anemones touching is something to be avoided. You should notice that one of them will start to retract on the side that is touching the other anemone. This is one of the reasons I don't like to mix species.

I would move it for good measure

The Condy packs a pretty good sting so move them away from each other

ok cool tanks i'll try to move on of them haha might be easier to move the rose since it on a rock thats easy to move lol

Glad to hear about them touching. I have a rbta and just brought home a gbta that wondered all over the tank and settled next to the rbta. They both seem happy!

RBTA and GBTA are same thing. No need to worry about touching.
Condy nems can sometimes eat fish, even clownfish. Be careful.

I am no expert but from my own experience i wouldnt even have 2 anemones of the same type touching. I had 2 RBTA touching for a while and one of them was CLEARLY unhappy and retracted along the touching side.
