Yvan,

This depends on many things. If the brooding dominant female is very dominant,
and the tank is relatively small (under 3 feet long), there is a good chance
that the dominant female will drive off (or even kill) the other females and
take their fry. This is the worst case scenario. Usually the females will
display to each other and try to steal fry. It is best if you watch them for a
few days, just to be safe.
