I have 2 Motoro's. 1 male and 1 female. Their disk sizes are around 11" or so. Will they start trying to breed soon? Should I add 1 male or would that increase aggression?
 
At 11in they should be pretty close to mature, I would add a female. Not a male. And make sure the female is 12in or bigger.
 
is the male mature, get a pic of his claspers, if they are rolled then he is mature, if not then he still has a while, females normally dont mature till about 12"
 
its easy.... good foods and clean water with good swimming space.....
 
I am feeding mine cooked shrimp, silversides, scallops and nightcrawlers. Is this a good diet?

The male's claspers do not appear to be "rolled" yet. Should I add a male or female then???
 
raw fresh water shrimps are better.... what size tank you got?
 
once ur female matures.... the male will... my male matured at 8" because there was a mature female in the tank.... just a waiting game, i agree with nic, raw is better
