Does the female lay the eggs then the male fertilise them or are they
fertilised then the female lays them in an area she likes?



I think they are egg scatterers, so the eggs are externally fertilized
(clouds of milt in the area the eggs are being laid). If you plan on
breeding killies, they have some interesting characteristics worth
researching (like their eggs are light-sensitive). I've never bred them
though. hth
