Fish breeding

[A.T.]

Any idea the best/if any way to breed neon tetras. They are my
favourite fish and I was wondering how I could make the ones I have,
have babies. Any ideas would be great.

this is not an easy fish to breed although it can be done. Requires very
soft acidic water filtered through peat with a Ph between 5-6.0. Very dim
lighting, temp about 75 degrees. Pick out a fat female and male and put them
in the tank before lights out. They may spawn the next morning after which
you should remove the adults.
