More than 2 male Frontosas per tank?

Hi

Does anyone out there have more than 2 male frontosas in a single colony? I'm curious, because my tank is setup and I'm putting a colony together. It seems like most people sell them in trios, so I'm going to end up with quite a few males. I'm hoping that 3 or 4 males will get along ok in an 8' tank, but I'm having my doubts.

I have 2 alphas in a tank with about 4 large females and 2nd 3rd gen. If you end up with 2 alphas the fighting gets progressively worse imo. I had to build limestone structures on each side of tank to give them each their own “property”
