This is variable, and depends on many circumstances.
Short answer
many people believe 1.2 is great.
some people have experience with males not doing a thorough job and so use 1.1 or even 2.1
some people like to use another male or two as 'insurance', figuring she will definitely take
some try to spread it a little thinner... 1.3 is not uncommon.
I personally have had an adult male albino agressively court 8 or 9 females one season, for more than 2 weeks each!
but NOT ONE of those females took!
In my opinion, shoot for 1.2, or even 1.3 but have a backup male for those important females.
