I would recommend moving the "weaker" male.

Subject: Apisto Reticulosa Belem territoriality
Hi.
I recently bought a couple pairs of nice wild Apisto Reticulosa Belem from
a
LFS. They seem to be acclimated well to their new tank. I have noticed
however that the dominant male seems to be keeping the other males in the
top corner of the tank. He seems a little more tolerant of the 2 females,
but the "less bold" male is definitely not his friend.
Should I remove this weaker male? He seems healthy, but is definitely
cowering.
The tank is 10 gall and contains just some live plants, a sponge filter and
an otto cat.
thanks
Bruce
