Can different species of Euphyllia touch?

[SKremk]

I've got a medium-sized colony of frogspawn with a big open area near it. I'd like to add another type of Euphyllia, perhaps an orange hammer, but any new coral will pretty quickly get withing touching distance of the frogspawn. Can different species of Euphyllia touch, or will they sting each other?

I hear frogspawn and hammers usually are okay but torch corals will attack other euphylias.

Here's proof. Torch attacking frogspawn. Luckily I separated the two without much of a problem.

+1 - I have no problems with my Euphylia touching anything but the torch

As deadly their stings are, I've read Hammers, Frogspawn and Torch's stings don't harm each other. They're all from the same family/genus. Can't remember which book I read it in though.
