30 Gallon Tank How likely is a group of female GBR to play nice over time?

Hi there!

1 month ago I was going to get a GBR from a local breeder.

However, their rams made more babies than expected so was offering 6 young juveniles for a very reasonable price as an alternative option. Given i have neocaridina in the tank I figured I'd try the young group to see if any would play nice especially growing up with shrimp.

They've grown well this month, and so far they're getting along about as good as I imagine I can expect from chiclids, and not being murderous towards the shrimp.

So far the ones that are getting big enough to show more convincing sexual dimorphism are all looking like girls.

How likely is it that they may all play nice as they mature further if theyre all girls?

32 gallon heavily planted with lots of nooks to hide in.

Rams will play nice with each other most of the time, especially when there's not breeding competition. Make sure you closely monitor for aggression.

Agree with cyberfish, the only time I have seen any aggression out of my rams is when they have eggs. And things have to be perfect for that to happen. If it's something your worried about could always just make an all female or all male tank. What I do with my discus until I'm ready for them to breed. Of course that means more tanks lol

Of course that means more tanks lol

I'm definitely not passing an opportunity for more tanks lol

If only female it should be ok but if a pair forms (you have a male) the female that pairs with the male can be quite brutal to the competition.
