What is the issue that you face while running all the containers at same time, In my opinion it would be dependency of one container over the other.

To answer your question you may use the docker compose as below to add delays


version: '3'
services:
  container1:
    image: your-image-1
    command: bash -c "sleep 0 && your-original-command-1"

  container2:
    image: your-image-2
    depends_on:
      - container1
    command: bash -c "sleep 60 && your-original-command-2"

  container3:
    image: your-image-3
    depends_on:
      - container2
    command: bash -c "sleep 60 && your-original-command-3"

  container4:
    image: your-image-4
    depends_on:
      - container3
    command: bash -c "sleep 60 && your-original-command-4"

  container5:
    image: your-image-5
    depends_on:
      - container4
    command: bash -c "sleep 60 && your-original-command-5"

You can use docker compose and healthchecks for this purposes:

For example:

version: '3.8'

services:
  service1:
    image: <your_image1>
    container_name: container1
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:80"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 3
      start_period: 30s

  service2:
    image: <your_image2>
    container_name: container2
    depends_on:
      service1:
        condition: service_healthy
    command: sh -c "sleep 60"

  service3:
    image: <your_image3>
    container_name: container3
    depends_on:
      service2:
        condition: service_healthy
    command: sh -c "sleep 60"
