Trio Ok ?

[Silverlady]

Hi i have just bought a pair of Anomalochromis Thomasi for my 50 Gallon tank.I know they are a pair cos the female laid Eggs . I was wondering if i could get the other Female that was in the same tank at the Lfs.
Obviously they came in as a Trio.Would the male be OK with two lady friends.
They are super little fish with lots of character, if any one is thinking of getting some.

usually trios are recommended to split the males attention so the female doesnt get battered too much. I dont know about that certain fish but i think it would be good.
