You really need to upgrade to a 29 IMO this will most likely help with your aggresion, in a 10 gallon its kinda like sticking a married couple in a small room for several days, someones gonna end up dead
 
"if i make more hideing spots would they b able to keep them in the 10 cuz i have no money or no room for a 20gal cuz some one else on this forum that a 10gal would b fine for them"

Question from your other thread that got closed.

unfortunatly you have been misinformed, a 10 gal for fish that grow 5-7" is just not big enough. i honestly don't know what to tell you, because if you don't have enough money to keep them in something bigger..., but IME i have taken Cheap 50 gal rubber maid containers and kept fish inside them. with filters and heating of course, so it can be done for cheap.
 
well make some more hiding spots for the female to hide in or the male whichever and by the time there around 4 inches to 5 inches UPGRADE please
