trios in 10

[rdrooster]

I know a 10gallon is quite small for a trio.If the male was removed after spawning would the two females be Ok together?The two females are sisters, same size and were added at the same time so at least right now neither is dominate.the tank is moderately planted with caves and wood.

Not a good idea, IMHO. The female with fry would probably kill (or at least try) the other female. You would be safer removing the other female with the male.

Agree with mike. It's really to small for a pair, 20l would evoke much better behavior.

Thanks for the advice guys. Ill have to do some re - arranging. These fish are so amazing and addictive .Im getting to the point that even I think I may have too many tanks. I dont think my wife will put up with me much longer.
