I'm looking for advice on how many male saulosis I am able to keep in a 55g. I have 5 yellow labs (1.5-2", sex?), 6 C. afra (2-2.5", sex?), and 6 P. saulosi (2-2.5", 3m/3f, so far) in there at the moment. The dominant male is really blue, the other two have darkened up and are starting to turn blue. Aggression is increasing but not out of hand yet. They occasionally try to impress each other with how fast they can swim in circles.

I know I should get rid of at least 1 male saulosi. Do I need to get rid of two? Opinions? The afras will probably be thinned out later as well. I think I might have at least 2 males.

I'd get another tank for all those extra males.
