Yep, 4 was to be the absolute maximum number of swordtails that I was going to try. My male seems to have grown significantly in the short time I have had him and I can see how it would get crowded in there quickly. I was trying to stick with the 3:1 female:male ratio that others have suggested but 2:1 may be just as well. He seems not to be too aggressive towards his lone tank mate now. Any bottom feeder suggestions besides snails?

4 Swords might be a little too many for a 10g. They get big and multiply rather quickly. Perhaphs doing a 2f:1m ratio might work... I like snails as bottom feeders ^_^ You could try breeding applesnails! Fun, fun, fun!
