There may be a little friction initially to establish a pecking order, so make sure you have plants and other structure to provide hiding places. How big is your tank?

I think they would be fine together until someone paired up and started breeding. It also depends on the tank size if they will be compatible with each other.

Crazymom Fingerling Posts: 40 Kudos: 34 Votes: 0 Registered: 23-Jul-2004	You will be alright with the 30gal until pairs form... I keep my 8 breeder males together in a 29 when I rest the females. I keep the females in a 40 during the rest period. The females actually usally spawn one more time with the other females but the eggs are eaten quickly by the others. My males seem to get along ok with each other when all the gals are away. You may luck out and have all the same sex.
