So I took this video today of my bala sharks...they've been doing this for couple minutes. Are the mating? If so i have them in a 125 gal tank with African Cichlids...they are not bothering the bala sharks but if they lay eggs or have babies will cichlids eat them all? I dont think Bala Sharks are aggresive enough to protect their territories.

Here is my youtube upload:

Couple of things

Their not livebearers
and their not having sex.

Their firstly far to small to breed, they have to get to around 10 inches before they will breed.
And spawning them in the home aquaria i don't believe has been done sorry. Although many fish farms breed them using hormone injection

What they are doing is just sparing with each other, which is harmless their just judging each other to see who's the strongest.
 
They have been bred in captivity on their own. It only happens when wild imports are put in a natural environment.
