I went to the LFS yesterday and picked up some fish for my 55g now that it is finally cycled. I got a few zebra danios to finish out the school with the danios I already had in my other tank. I also picked up a pair of Boesemani Rainbows, a male and a female. Now I know these fish prefer to be in groups, so I am going to get 1 or 2 more (I really don't want to get more than this since they have a max size of 5" and I would like to be able to put some other fish in my tank too). Does it matter what ratio of males to females I get or does it not make a difference with these fish? I know the males look prettier with females around. I also don't know if these fish form true "pairs," but the two I have are doing great and are pretty much inseperable. I may try breeding them, but I'm not sure yet.
