I have 2 large green they are amazing. The babies will eat each other when they are that small is the same tank though :(

My babies ? There's 40 in a 2 foot tank.
I've read that they won't eat each other until they reach about 25mm
At the moment they're about 10mm
Only 3 days old

I have read the opposite so I'm not sure maybe ask a breeder :)

O okay I don't know anybody that breeds them but have read 3 different breeders posts on how to care for them through the different stages.
They all say the same.
I have a few tanks that I'm getting ready for them once they're bit bigger.
I'm feeder them plenty of brine and they have heaps of room so hopefully they will be okay.

Cool. Just the breeder I got my two told me about that. We kept ours apart until they were bigger now they love each other lol.

That's when they eat other from what I've read

I have two (no pics atm sorry!) a GFP and a regular. They are still young so I've got them in a 15 gallon tank and they are just fine! They swim around together and get along nicely. Once they get a bit bigger I'm planning on moving them to a 30-40 long.
 
I have 3 ? if your axys are around the same size, have enough space and are kept well fed, they'll be less likely to bite at each other

The one thing I've learned is the best option for substrate is sand or nothing at all. Feed them a variety of food and really stay on top of water changes.
