Points about spawning

Many people who keep Aphyosemion stratum want to breed them. The male Aphyosemion stratum has a brighter red line than the female, making it easier to distinguish male and female. Aphyosemion stratum is an "oviparous" species, like killifish, so it attaches its eggs to water plants. Therefore, it is important to add water plants.Once you see that the eggs have been attached to aquatic plants or other items, place them in a separate aquarium from the adult tank. Aphyosemion stratum may also eat the eggs when eating the water plants, so try to keep them separate as much as possible. After hatching, it is important to feed them several times a day as you would any other tropical fish.
