They do fight but can eventually end up growing together. I have them growing in and through each other and have a monti cap growing through them as seen in the cluster photo below.
I have a few colonies of digitata that have fused together to make a multicoloured stalk.
Most of this fusion occurred in hard to photograph areas but here is one very small example, notice in the middle top half of the photo the purple tip growing off of the green stalk, also notice the brown "war zone" where they fought. Unfortunately only my 20k 150's were on when I took these so sorry for the poor pictures. I took them in haste tonight when I saw this post.




I also have a chunk of green digitata fused onto a colony of birdsnest.


Here is a couple of shots of a monti/digitata cluster
