If the trio is 1M 2F, it is better.

will there be a problem of the other female eating the fries of the brooder ??
Usually there is something wrong with the initial pair when they are not spawning.
Example: sneaker male, female not ready.
I try not to use trio unless you have another tank to house the third party.

Current tank: 1 4 tier 3ft fish rack
Livestock: WC Ivanacara Adoketa, WC Apistogramma Kelleri 'Red Cheeks', A , WC Apistogramma Mendezi, WC Apistogramma Cruziero, WC Apistogramma Elizabethae and WC Biotoecus Operularis.
For me I'll usually have trio so the male can choose... Once it start to breed and successfully spawn I'll take out the male and other female and left the spawning female alone... By doing this provided you have a spare tank...

Go for a pair unless you have spare tanks for separation later.
