another thing to consider is that your male will turn very mean towards the female if the fry are left in the tank. I would remove either of the parents or all the fry.

why do the males turn on the female? i noticed this and had to put a divider in the tank... even after the fry were removed it takes him a few days to chill out and stop attacking the female.
they absolutely can breed again.
the first and only time it happened with me, the female wound up without a tail. it has completely grown back, but i won't risk it again. think the fry raise/egg protect combo sparked the conflict in the tank.
