Caryl Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Depends on the genetics, age, condition and size of the female. They can spawn every 6 weeks, roughly, and have anything from 1 or 2 upwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Have you got the female on her own or in a community tank? She, and all the other fish big enough, will eat the fry as fast as they are born. A good clump of fine leaved plant, like Java moss gives the fry a chance of survival.
