Location code: Aquarium strain | | Water conditions: Neutral | Water temperature: 20-23oC | | Disposition: Active, but not aggresive | Community tank?: Doubtful, only with VERY calm fish | | Spawning Method: Spawning Mops | Breeding problems: Poor egg survival | | Sex ratio: Somewhat male heavy | Breeding difficulty: Easy | | Sucess: Fairly unsucessful | Years Experience: 1 | | Other Comments: A good starter fish for new breeders, they do not require difficult conditions as long as the usual water changes are made and they are conditioned with live food they will produce a good supply of fertile eggs.
I found though the first months supply were not fertile, it was not until the fish were full grown that the eggs become fertile, and fry are quit easy to grow on.
