2 gigantea's touching?

[Powertec70]

HI there.

I have 2 gigantea's that are now touching each other. I figured same species and shouldn't be an issue but thought i would check anyways.
The one has just expanded so much the last day or two that they are touching.

Thanks

I hear they can go crazy and kill each other if you don't post pics.:lol:

Seriously though. If they are both healthy, they will be fine touching each other. If one or both of them is a new introduction, it could be carrying a bacterial infection that can spread to the other.

OKay we'll i am not so sure they are very happy with this arrangment that they have put themselves in. The purple one doesn't seem to really care but i think what has happened is the flow is now getting blocked to the yellow one.

So what to do now???

Video is uploading now.

I think it's better if they don't touch but if they do it's really not a showstopper. I have 4, 2 of which constantly touch and 2 of which occasionally touch. There's no issue. I'll try to dig up a thread that shows the first two touching..
