Most care sheets I find say to only house breeding pairs but most books also say that 1.2 harems are okay. I already have a 6" female but I'm about to buy a 10-12" male. The store also has 2 more young females and I was hoping to buy them all. I can keep all the females in one cage and the male in his own cage but I would rather use that cage for a Giant D.G. colony. Then again I don't think it would be wise to have more than 1 female in any cage.

Would I be better off just buying the male and hope somebody as caring as me buys the other females. I would rather have as many females as possible because I want to start the biggest breeding program that I can. I've already got people asking me for CB juvies.

The cages I have now are a 29gal and a 65gal. I can buy another 65gal within the month of April if I have to. I've also been think of setting up visual barriers but I would like other people's opinions on these ideas.
