We just moved 3 of our girls into their new 55 gal home. My husband has 4 hides on the warm side, , a coconut hide on top level, 2 humidity hides on the cool side and 2 rock hides on the cool side ( he split rock and built the hides from rocks). We have another female in a 10 gallon by herself and she is finally up to 50 grams and I was thinking of moving her in with the other 3 girls. Is a 55 gal big enough for 4 girls? I don't want them to be unhappy. We just have so many small tanks spread all over the place. Thanks

A 55 is plenty of room for 4 leos but its just a matter if they will get along. Im guessing the 3 you have together now are fine but if you do decide to try to put the other female in with them, make sure to keep a close eye on them and be prepared to seperate her if needed..

Yeah the 3 girls that I have in there now have been together since they were hatchlings. We adopted all 3 of them together and the previous owner had had them together in a 10 gal tank for a year. I will be sure and watch for any signs of aggression. I thought we would also set her food dish up in a seperate location. The 3 girls that are together are night time eaters and the other one will only eat early in the morning.

Sounds like they've got quite the upgrade :) I recently adopted 2 leos from someone too. After they got happy & healthy the fighting began. I had to separate them after a month of being perfectly fine together in a 20L.
