How To Pair Up Kribensis?

[basti]

I have four kribs now but have not successfully bred any yet. Would it be better to try different combinations of pairs or put them all together and see what happens. All roughly similar size except for one large male. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

They would have highest chance of breeding successfully if they pair off on their own. Also they normally won't breed unless conditions are good, so maybe post your set-up information?

thanks for the advice- so I just put them together and wait?
Not sure which tank I will put them in yet. But I will do a shuffle around so they will likely be in their own.

Pretty much, yes.

If you have more than one male, you should use at least a 4ft; if you have only one male, a 4ft or larger would be safest.. they can get very aggressive once they actually start spawning.

Thanks for the advice, I will do that, i am not 100% sure on the gender of a couple of them, I will leave my large male in a tank of it's own and i will put the other three together. Thanks again for the advice.
