Breeding

[EndlersBoi]

I was just here wondering if you guys have had any success community breeding CPD’s at a decent rate (nothing crazy but enough to sell some to an LFS every once in a while.)
I have some CPD’s in a 10 gallon with some endlers (obviously breeding) and was just wondering if they are better off breeding by themselves and doing the whole breeder box thing, or in communities.
Thanks!

I have had success in a small community using a spawning mop, you will still have to move the eggs to a separate tank for them to hatch and grow out though. I don't know if that counts as "community breeding" lol.

I put 2 males and 3 females in a 10 with a clump of Java Moss that reached to the surface. In a single species tank like this, they were moderately prolific.

Id suggest youll need an extra 10g tank. Put a small plastic cup with moss in it in the main tank and remove the cup each day to the other tank or fill main tank with guppy grass for the fry to hide.
