Rick,

There is only one thing worse than trying to pair Gold Stripe Maroons and that is trying to pair White Stripe Maroons.

Joyce Wilkerson says that it can be done but it requires a lot of caution. If you pair up similar sized Maroons, they will very likely kill each other. She recommends getting one about half the size of your existing one so that the newcomer will be instantly terrified of the larger fish and immediately submit. That means you need to find one that is only about 1" to 1.25" long.

Good luck!
