I know that is it bad to have different species of coral touch each other, but is it alright to have different species of mushrooms touching each other? EX, a watermelon mushroom touching a hairy mushroom?

Kinda catch my drift?

I dont think it would hurt any thing if they touched.But you might want to keep an eye on em for a few days just to be on the safe side.

I've had all kinds of mushrooms touch one another with no ill effects.The only ones I hear you shouldn't have touching anything are Ricordeas.

Not trying to jack a thread, but anyone know where to get good ricordeas affordable? BTW the only problem I've seen with mushrooms touching is that sometimes 1 gets too big and blocks the light to others.

The cheapest I have ever seen rics, online, or in my LFS is $10 a pop. If you find any cheaper than that, let me know. They are one of my favorites.
