Right now I have four females in one tank. It's mom and three daughters. There's also a litter of seven in with them, they're about 3 weeks old. I haven't noticed any problems yet. Is this something that's going to inevitably turn into a problem? I don't have the space for another tank, and I just can't take them to the pet store... :/
