Getting males and females is the hardest part. My ryukins spawn regularly. The goldies WILL eat all of the eggs, if given the chance. Most folks that I know that spawn goldies use either a spawning mop or eggcrate on the bottom of the tank.
Gotta be prepared if you want to breed goldies...spawns in the thousands are not unheard of. They are very prolific egg-layers, especially those older, big females.
