Just curious, do you initially like to have a group of hopeful adults of mixed sex in a spawning tank or do you prefer to handpick a single male and have the rest of the inhabitants female?........or other?

Against common recommendation, I only use single pairs.

Hmmm, so do you ever toss in more than one female? In my constant battle to think like a fish, It's also interesting that some folks like to put in more than one male. Male territorial behavior (according to some) promotes breeding behavior. This aspect is mostly embraced by cichlid enthusiasts but I personally know a sucessful breeder of corydoras that subscribes to this idea. Any thoughts? (Just pickin' your brain).

Awesome.

What is that you are putting the eggs in? An overflow or breeder box?
