Water conditions: Very soft and acidic, 16-19oC
Spawning Method: Adult fish removed from tank
Breeding problems: Skewed sex ratio
Sex ratio: Somewhat male heavy
Breeding difficulty: Difficult
Success: Fairly successful
Other Comments: I use rainwater cut with tapwater: 75% rainwater. The tanks are dimly lit with oakleaves and peatmoss as a substrate. Anubias nana grows from a small amount of sunlight and light from adjacent tanks. Sometimes I scoop fry, put into container with tank water. I then add the 75% rainwater every couple days until the top of the container is reached. I only add water after they have eaten for a week.
