nice fishes. did i hear you correctly when you said you got them together now to try to breed them? they look tiny to me. i would wait for a good while before trying to breed them. i try to let my fish mature a bit before breeding.

yea they are together and she wants to lay eggs.... she is twitching alot and turning dark also?
 
they are zz's and they have been known to breed at very young ages. but those look like babies to me. they haven't even grown enough to mature to their fullest potential yet. i take it that filter behind them is a aquaclear under a 70 because of the small intake tube. that's how i am judging size of them, especially the male.

I would just enjoy the three FH's you have now. You have three good looking fish that havnt come close to there potential yet. If you are bent on breeding them, it would help you to have other tanks you can put the fry in once they hatch. Also not expecting a lot doesnt mean breeding these fish will be easy. What do you plan on doing when the 50-100 fry you have are all 1-2".
 
Thanks for sharing your collection brother but as for me they still young to breed and I believe the off spring from them not going to be great like you expected because they still too young. Well this just my 2 cent and the rest is up to you brother...GBU

best regards,
