ryanwatts Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 if i had a colony of 12 frontosa if i had more than 3 males would the males beat the females up too much? like beat them into not breeding or spitting the eggs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avarice Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 a bit of bsdm isn't sad... unless he means actually hit... also my little brother has a similar set up to the one you describe and his female don't get to beat up. but i've never bred em so i couldn't say for sure.

aquaholic99 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Its actually the females which harrass each other more. Use the biggest tank you can find and give them 2 caves each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frontosamad Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 no problems there yes the females fight between themselves more then the males would beat them up but hey its the size of the tank that counts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sealord1au Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 remove the two extra males you only need 1 and you will have better success with 1 male females are the fighters well not fight but annoy each other good luck but what size tank are they in?
