Regular Member Goldyfan Posted February 17, 2007 Regular Member Share Posted February 17, 2007 Yes they are easy to breed, and are also livebearers. This means they don't lay eggs, but give birth to fry. How big is the tank? Does she have other fish in the tank? Because they breed frequently, you have to be careful not to become overstocked. Also, they often eat their young. Most fish see fry as a tasty treat! Separating the adults from the fry after birth is recommended to prevent this. Good luck, and keep us posted!
