two pairs per tank

[springer]

Would this work. If a person took two mated pairs and put them in a 50 gallon tank. Then he would use a divider so he would have a pair on both sides. They would be able to see each other but not come in contact with each other,d0 u think this would affect them in laying eggs or breeding.

It would be better if the pair could not see one another otherwise when the first pair has free swimmers they may see the other pair as a threat and eat their own kids. When I did something like that in a 120 long tank I used a foam divider from Swiss Tropicals.
