I'd say a 10 gal tank for a 1.7 group is WAY too small. 1.4 in a 10 might work, but I bet the crowding is a large part of the problem. I don't know what the protein content on the Mazuri is, but you might want to consider supplementing it with some higher protein dog food (~16-20%). This would be too high of protein in maintenance food, but those breeders need all the protein and fat they can get. Don't go too high of protein though, because then it will taste bad and they won't eat it.
