okay i've got these firemouths that i got about a month ago. i know they were a pair once i let them out of the bag the very first time because the female followed the male every were around he went i put them in a 29 alone being that they are still 3" once they are around full size ill get them a bigger tank . But the thing is i know the female is ready to spawn because her breeding is out and she looks fatter then usual .the male doesnt really have his tube out like hers is but he still is looking more colorful then usual also . i figured they was going to spawn soon is there anything i can do to help speed it up . i put the heater on 86 degrees and have been doing water changes twice a week
 
you cant really speed them up other than what your doing. Feed high quality foods try to throw in some live foods, if you can. Keep the water quality up. They should produce for you soon.
 
oo ok
