>STUDY! Read, confer with other reefers to assemble a working assortment. Buy/Procure captive-produced stocks they get along better. Otherwise, do quarantine/stabilize new purchases. Provide adequate initial, stinging, expansion and growth space between specimens. Go slowly often cnidarians get used to each other over time. Keep your system in dynamic equilibrium through regular monitoring and maintenance.
