Life cycle and mating behavior परिपक्व अवधि | पुनरुत्पत्ति | मछलीऔ का अंडे देना | अंडे | Fecundity | लार्वा

At spawning time in captivity, male and female swim alongside one another. Several batches of 1 to 5 eggs are laid among the fine-leaved plants, with a total of up to 200 eggs in some cases; eggs hatch in 30 to 40 hours and fry are free-swimming about six days after (Ref. 7020). Between 24°-27°C, eggs hatch in 24 hours (Ref. 205).
