The male will trap the female inside the cave to ensure successful spawning, this is completely normal and nothing to worry about. The pair will spawn inside the cave, with the female laying a cluster of eggs that the male immediately fertilises. After spawning, the female is released and leaves the area, while the male takes full responsibility for the eggs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe male stays in the cave almost constantly, fanning the eggs with his fins to keep water moving over them, which helps prevent fungal growth and keeps the eggs well-oxygenated. He will also remove any dead or infertile eggs and guard the site from other fish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe eggs hatch within 3–5 days, depending on water temperature and other environmental factors. Once hatched, the fry remain in the cave for another 3–4 days, absorbing their yolk sacs. During this time, they do not require external food. When the yolk sacs are fully absorbed, the fry become free-swimming and will begin to leave the cave in search of food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo encourage breeding, provide multiple suitable caves, maintain excellent water quality, and feed the adults a varied, high-quality diet to keep them in top condition.
