Leptastrea compatibility issues

Post by oceanwa »

I'm hoping someone with experience can help me out. I've got a 24k and a purple-eye leptastrea on the way and I'm thinking of placing them next to each other like I do with my acans. The thing is, I'm not sure if they'll get along or if they'll sting each other. Has anyone kept these two species together before?

It's likely fine, but I'm not 100% sure. I've had two leptastreas for a while now, but I've never placed them next to each other, so I don't have any personal experience to share. I'm only chiming in since no one else has responded yet.

If you do decide to try it, I'd really appreciate an update on how it works out for you.

I recall seeing a post, might've been here or somewhere else, where someone had two different colored leptastreas on the same frag plug - it was pretty cool, looked like one piece with two colors. Everything seemed to be going great for them. If I stumble upon that thread again, I'll try to dig up the link for you.

They're good to go, in my experience.

Thanks so much, everyone. Really appreciate the link, zenoxa - I'll definitely post a pic once they're settled in a bit. The purple-eye just arrived this week, and the golden is on its way next week - super excited.
