   The 29's and the 20H, are good for pairs. The 55 gal can hold 6-8 adults, if you maintain a weekly water change schedule. However, if/when they pair up...it could get troublesome.  ;D

   You'd need a 5 gal or 10 gal to rear fry (if parents don't raise)..then the 55 gal could be used for grow out....for a bit....not long.

If you'd want just one pair, should they parent raise, in the 20H ..you could split them up and use the 2 29's for early grow out...cull for the best, or to reduce the spawn, and then further grow them out in the 55 gal....to sell as nickel+ or quarter size...after that you'd need more grow out space....
