I have a 55 gallon tank with 2 reds in it 6-8in. They are very shy and won't even eat with someone in the room. I know this is because they are not in a shoal but my tank is not big enough for more than 4. I was thinking of getting 6-7 1 inch reds and then raise them together. I know that some of them will get eaten or I will sell them but the strongest and most aggressive will survive. Will this help the 3-5 that make it not be shy when older even though they are not a full shoal anymore? I thought about going with Caribe but they are much more expensive than reds. Thanks!
