couple petro questions

Post by redzebra24 »

ok i want to get 20 1.75in petros. they are 13 months old. i have 10 tanks up and running and i wanted to put like 5 petros in each of my 55g and then the other 10 in my 30 and 20s. Inone of my 55s i have wc multies. 1m 1f and they are huge. I was wondering if it was still safe to put the petros still in there? When should they start breeding? i have heard 2 years in the past. what is the best ratio? 1 m 19f or 10m 10f? please lmk. thanks for looking

You only need 1 male and 1 female. More helps but specific ratios do not matter.
