Hi all,
I have a heavily planted 180L 90x50x50 community tank.
I currently have a pair of adult beautiful Macmasteri in there, along with some Cardinal tetras, pygmy corydoras and otos.
The pair are lovely and have bred a few times in this tank but the fry don't survive, I don't mind though as this pair I bred myself along with 35 others and it was enough to do it once. It was great but I don't need to try to do it again! The current pair are not that aggressive at all and haven't hurt any other fish when breeding.
I would like to keep another female or two in the tank if possible. Will this be ok with the current 2 fish, or will things get hairy? I don't want the new fish to get bullied, which is why I thought maybe 2 new females would be better than one.
I have a lot of leaves all over the tank and will add extra seedpods strategically for the females to claim as their caves if it's possible.
Thanks!
