1. I've sterilized the water by having it boil for around 10-20minutes.
2. I set the right temperature to... 26 degrees to begin with.
3. Got the female neon used to the water by adding small amounts of water at a time to a plastic bag with the neon (1 female).
4. Placed her in a separate container alone for around 20-30 minutes.
5. Repeated steps with 2 males and finally placed them in the same container as the female.
6. Slowly dropped temperature to 23C and an exact 7.0 pH level.

The tank is empty asides from a small bubbler, a heater a thermometer and an artificial plant in the center..

What am I doing wrong?
Should I lower the PH to a surten level?
I've also read some sites that say to "add salt"??
Should I feed them something?

They've been in the tank for about 2 hours.. and they just.. lay down at the bottom still, not moving or anything *Yes, they're alive*

they spawn all over the tank not on one plant. the eggs are to small to see your self. see here for some websites that might answer your questions. Let me know if you have any success cuz I want to breed my neons

if you read this link, it might help with alot of fish issues you may have now or in the future http://www.fishlore.com/NitrogenCycle.htm

most tanks have to be well established before any breeding will happen..goodluck!
