Set up: 180 litre community, then 100 litre community tank the second time. Now in designated 17x12x12 40 litre breeding tank.

Any triggers/other information : First time, I did a very large water change, pulled out all my dying plants and added more wood/hardscape elements. Second time was again, water change with RO water after they had been in very hard tap water a while.

I've always heard that frontosa breed well right after a storm...we've had two major storms here and I have 1-2 that are pregnant. Perhaps it's true!
