I am debating on a few ways to go about this. I would love to keep the four together, but I am afraid of aggression. I was thinking of houseing the females seperately (but argh; I need to get some more housing!) and rotating the male. Another thought was to get 2 more males, house them 1.1 and 1.1 and either feed-off the remaining one or use it in trade for a male at the shop..
I am hoping to get to my friend's shop today if she is open, and see what's there. if it is all females.. argh!
Edit: yay! Called the shop and she's there.. I am off.

Re: ASF trio
Good Job Tyree! Watch those fingers when your playin with the babies...Momma no like!
Jen- I would see if you can get 2 males and 3 more females and set up 2 tanks 1.3....separate the girls (move 2 and a strange female into the 1.3)

When i lifted the box her nest was under today, i thought i saw the devil! Don't worry she can have her space! lol
I'll try and get some pics up later....i just don't want her to eat them or something....so i didn't really bother her!

Re: ASF trio
Poop.. she was out of ASFs. No males or females. I know of a store that I can probably get to tmrw, that sells them.. cross your fingers :)
I will take your advice, Charlie. Sounds like a plan! For now I guess I just have 3 females getting fat "off of the system" and not producing :)

Re: ASF trio
lol I have to breed REW cuz that's the only thing available in Costa Rica other than wild ones, and wild ones dont breed very well in captivity (yeah tried it lol)
