Hello everyone, I just picked up 4 female star sapphire cichlids 2 days ago and added them with my male in a already established tank and I am having problems. The females seem to show no interest in the male and are being aggressive towards each other. I don't know what the problem is as I am very new to this species. Any help is appreciated (they are in a 40 breeder as of right now quarantining along side my male).

My male is practically done quarantine but my females still have another 3 weeks or so
I would put them in a bigger tank (ex/ 6 foot 180 gallon tank). When you see breeding activity if the tank is big enough just leave them there, but if that tank is causing problems you can move just the male & that female to the 40 long.
