How big is the tank? you could always just keep a divider handy incase anything does kick of then just split the tank in half for them.

1st tank is 30gal with 2 males an other community fish and 20gal tank with just 2 male and 2 female cacs

Why not rehouse/rehome them now? Or swap for some females? Long term the numbers aren't going to work out.

im trying to rehouse them and would love to swap with females but no fish shop will?

Might need to adverse further afield then, gumtree, classifieds etc - you never know.

Annoyingly I can't get any females at the mo, everyone wants to sell them as mf pairs.
