When a lady pepper or bronze gets round, even when she is young and small, she will breed. The boys will try, but it make take a few times to get fertile eggs. The issue with other fish is will they bother the Cories? (Very little will keep a C.aeneus from spawning.) Or will they eat the eggs before you move them? C. aeneus will spawn and have fry survive without any assistance in a mature tank--1 or 2 per spawn, ime so far. If the guppies are small they may not be able to do damage to the eggs once they harden.
