ok i found this for you,

Breeding
The sexes are fairly easy to differentiate by observing the body type. Males are much slimmer than the stocky full-bodied female. A separate breeding tank should be set up with very soft acidic water (4 dGH or less), a dark substrate, and fine leafed plants. Lighting must be very dim. If the room is very bright, place cardboard on the sides of the tank to subdue the light.

Breeding pairs should be selected from healthy adults that are approximately one year old. Younger fish may spawn, but best results are achieved in fully mature fish. Condition the breeding pair prior to spawning with live foods such as brine shrimp and mosquito larvae.

Spawning generally occurs early in the day. The female will scatter several hundred sticky eggs on the plants and/or substrate. Once spawning has occurred, the mating pair should be removed from the aquarium, as they will consume the eggs and young fry. Fry are relatively easy to raise, and may be fed commercially prepared fry foods, freshly hatched brine shrimp, or finely crushed flake foods.
