hi
 i had a miss hap with my hump backs and lost my male, i did however get some young.
how old will the young males have to be before they can cover my females?

As far as i know they do store sperm for up to 3-4 months, so hopefuly you will get more fry from them.

As for a breeding age then not a clue, i've never kepped them befor, but i would guess at something like 4-6 months depending on how well their are feed.

hi
i've been feeding the females up and it is looking like they may be pregnant and filling up nicely without a male.
thanks
