That would be plenty for them.

But for breeding, you dont want any other fish in the tank as they will eat the eggs or wrigglers.

3 breeding pairs ? Shouldnt a pair be two ?

if you have two breeding pairs in the same tank there will be a lot of fighting.

Are you planning to breed them ? Would be best if you just put 2 in a tank.
