How young is too young?

Hi all.

A mate of mine has hundreds of baby Siamese fighters, M & F. They range in size from 15mm to 30mm long and are around 8 weeks old, maybe a little older. They are showing colour and some males are blowing bubbles. They are in one tank but will need seperating soon.

We are wanting to know when are they old enough to move on to new homes?

As Alanmin says or you can leave them to grow up more. As long as you don't muck around by taking some out and putting them in other tanks they can stay together reasonably peacefully. I have a tank of three month old male and females - about 100 or so - still together. Float a mass of plants at the top for hiding places. Unless the males really start to fight don't touch! This is presuming they are in a big enough tank to cope with. Mine are in a 100 litre tank at the moment.
