Iā€™ve got an assorted live bearer tank, and thought about adding a few Limia nigrofasciata
To the tankā€¦ reading on Seriously Fish it sounds like they should be kept as a harem, with one male, and several femalesā€¦ they are available from Danā€™s as reverse trios, 2 males, and one femaleā€¦ not sure if having several types of platyā€™s in the tank ( lots of other females ) would prevent squabbling of the males or not??? Not sure why Danā€™s would sell reverse trios, unless Seriously Fish, is incorrect, or perhaps they just got more males than females, or keeping back females, for breeding purposes???
Thoughts???

I've got them for years and still keep them. The sex ratio is not of any bad influence. They live in harmony overhere.
 
Mine got along really well, as long as the tank was large enough. They were a 'no problem' livebearer here.
