Taeniacara candidi questions

["The Haunted" <theoutlaw_torn@hotmail.com>]

Hey,

Ive had 4 Taeniacara candidi for about a year now. One fish is huge now and 
has bright red fins and is obviously the male, a long with a smaller male 
that I can tell. However, Im not sure if the last 2 are females or not. They 
are very small, and look kind of like the male, minus the spade on the 
caudal fin as well as shorter other fins and less intense colour. But. they 
could, for all intents and purposes, be really small males?

I was thinking of setting up a tank for breeding them, or at least housing 
them. right now they are in a 15 gallon planted display tank with a pair of 
A. elizabethae and some random other apistos.

Can anyone share their successful methods at spawning these fish? what size 
tank? pH? tank decor? use dither fish? etc.. thank you
