WE HAVE A MALE AND FEMALE, SO ONE PAIR

Third hatch brought on by water change that lowered temp and over feeding. Probably have another 60

Edit: A heater is definitly recommended, as this last hatch was half the amount as before and it was only held by room temp at around 75 F. Second hatch had a heater in the tank and kept it at 80F.

These are all things im trying to do for about a month. So far the amarillos and cherry shrimp are the closest ones to get-r-done. Currently looking for deals on craigslist for set ups for breeding. Right now they are on their own in their perspective community tanks.
