Yes I agree, I wouldn't want to see you have your plants die off. That's a heavy ratio of peat moss and if those are growing indoors that's bound to become a death sentence. The plants themselves I'm sure could cohabitate but you should consider a more aerated mix. Something like 40 % peat, 50% silica/pool filter sand, and throw some perlite in there for some extra drainage. Get those guys some more light and when the spring comes you'll have some nice looking plants. I read a while ago you said something about your plants dying off. Both of those are salvageable still but I agree, that VFT doesn't look good. Both of those are very heavy sun loving plants.
