Keep them well fed or else the females will eat the males. Males only top out at 4” while females can get up to 8”. Will canibalize their own kind without hesitation. Add lots of cover both top and bottom and soon you will have tons babies

Yeah these things are vicious, they have been picking off my Lemon tetras and attacking the smaller rainbows. Might end up pulling and putting in my outdoor pond. They would be cool to watch in there and I could feed mosquito fish once a week. (drop about 30 in) and watch them go to town.
