So these rats attacked any other previous rats I've tried introducing to them;
Pauper; male, took a large chunk out of a rat's tail, tore a chunk from rat's back leg, bites any rat's tail that might hang out of their cage and he can reach it. Age is unknown, I got him from a friend who got him as a large feeder rat

Missy; female, about 2 years old. When I tried introducing her to my other girls (two adults and three babies) she killed one of the babies and injured the other four rats

My worry is that they sleep ALL the time
I pay as much attention as I can to them, Pauper is not a fan of interaction and attacks anything near his cage in general UNLESS going through the door of the cage. Even then, he doesn't like being held. Missy is the exact opposite and loves love and interaction in general. I'm just worried them sleeping all the time is unhealthy.
