Man I feel bad for missing out on this thread. That's what I get for not checking the site in a few days!
I'm the one who had the millipedes that were fighting, they were the same species though. Pete from BiC told me that it's fine to mix species that aren't from the same region, as long as they have similar environment needs. My single D. macracanthus (an african species) lives with my Florida ivories, and every one seems to be getting by fine, as that tank has produced a huge amount of babies.
The "giant blues" are not blue as immatures by the way. I don't think they get nice coloring until they're near adulthood. Mine are just boring grey right now and about 2 inches.
