      I bred a trio. Never got fry but they did breed. I also bred 8 canary cheek. I'm also starting to feel like ratios are over rated

        24 males and 1 female colony. Let's go!

          Lol. Not THAT extreme. But if something is rare and the ratio sucks, why not? It can work.

              Well I've bred pairs of fish easily. No aggression issues. Seems like people want trios. I have trios in two colonies and I don't see a difference in breeding.

                How do 'legions' or 'schools' compare to colonies?

                    Colonies are somehow more appropriate sounding? They are all just descriptors signifying quantities. Usually fish are referred to as a school, like crows and ravens are murders.

                      15 is pushing it. Done 15 plenty of times. Lose a few fish and "it" breaks loose.

                      Ideal group is 25 for me. I do not want more than that in my colonies.

                        Colony is more appropriate give the social structure and interactions they display.

                          I can see your point, but I think its just a descriptor that stuck. Legion has WAY more structure and sounds cooler. Especially all those blood thirsty mutinies that seem to crop up. I say you grab it for petros Sunny!!!!

                            Legion makes it sound like a Roman take over
