I want them to establish territories at will so I am going to reduce the stock now rather than later and have the Cutteri up for sale. After eliminating them, I am thinking of adding a school of tetras of some sort to distract the Bahia Red from pointing aggression towards anyone. However I am concerned about the possibility of the tetras eating the fry (when the time comes). Any thoughts?
Currently kept at 72-74 degrees for the winter. Current inhabitants: Gymnogeophagus Balzanii, Cryptoheros Sajica and Cutteri, Geophagus 'Bahia Red' and some misc. guppies

The Bahia Red male reallys stick to himself in the cave and doesnt really show aggression. Everyone is still young though.
