Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has any experience on buying sexed peacocks (3'') vs buying a group of juveniles (1'') and waiting to see which are male vs female.
Buying them as juveniles is the cheapest option but eventually I'd have to remove the females.
Just wondering if anyone has experience with this and can point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
 
Wanted to add that this is a 55 gallon tank, cycling as I type. I'm thinking that buying them as juveniles may decrease aggression a bit.
Has anyone had experience with this?

Also what is their growth rate?
