John, I got this species last year. Easy species, breed like rabbits. My pair, in a species tank had 3 week old fry in the tank when they spawned again. I had to remove the fry to another tank as neither the off the pair tolerated the fry. I found it was the female who solely cared for the free swimming fry while the male stayed out of the way. He never caused any bother and the female never bothered him. Tank: 18"x18"x8" tall, sand substrate, small clay pots, floating plants, sponge filtration and pH6. - 6.5.
