Size differences?
Hey, sorry if this has been discussed to death in the past, but I haven't seen it mentioned.
I know about what sizes both the male and female ought to be at for breeding, and that the minimum weights for females are much higher. However, I haven't seen anywhere if it is okay for the male to be larger than the female. Does it even matter?

Doesn't really matter if the male is bigger.
Sometimes big females will try and bully smaller males which can lead to problems.
