too small for 4 sure...
but a pair or even 3 would be ideal.

The trick (IME) is the aquascape...
As long as the females dont have to look at one another from their respective caves where they build their nests you should be just fine.


The male will go back and forth depending on which female is cycling but always be moving in between the females nests...

Okay well then that may be in the running for fish that will go in the tank.

Be prepared to have to go through a few grammas before you find a male and a couple of females....

JL was really good about letting me trade a couple back in beofre i found the right fits.

The old school of thought was that Grammas could change sex like clowns do but this has been debunked so you need an established male and established females to make it work.

Often, you will see a large and small gramma in your lfs that are inseperable with virtually no aggression between them.

That's likely a pair, so keep your eyes open.
