I have  2  great looking pairs of these fish that have grown  nicely. I am  
having trouble inducing them to spawn, They are in a 5 gallon tank   with two 
floating mops. They mostly eat new hatched brine shrimp and  live  
blackworms. Any 
suggestions would be helpful,

Hi Henry,
 
You might try putting each pair in a separate tank. You might have some egg  
eating by the second pair. The males may be spending more time chasing each  
other rather than mating. Try a bottom mop in each tank may produce some eggs  
for you also. Partial water changes each week may also help.
 
Sincerely,
 
Sandy
