I dont know...mine spawned after I crowded them enough to remove some of
their nervousness. I didn't get any babies from their first spawn but they
are at it again and seem capable of keeping everyone else at bay. This
time, however, when they chase all the other fish to the opposite end, there
will be a pair of Keyholes with eggs waiting for them. I dont expect
casualties but there may be a lot of torn fins. BTW, the Keyholes spawned
as soon as the pH dipped below 6. None of my fish were spawning for a
while there but now, most of them are at it. May be it is the weather, may
be it's the water changes or may be just amore.
