In the 60 cm × 35 cm × 40 cm fish tank planting water plants, or in the bottom of the tank laying hairline grass, the surface of the water floating a few water plants, will be 3 to 5 pairs of parent fish into.
Their eggs are very small, with females laying 100 to 150 eggs per spawn, and the spawning time is long. Fertilized eggs hatch out into young after 24 hours.
