We've seen a couple of occurances of this lately, and I would like to hear what you think about it. I know of one tank that gets multiple spawns have WC breeding, but my impression about the others is that there's F1's breeding?

If so, are we witnessing a reduced need for large territory? I reduced territorial instict in fish bred in captivity?

I'd love to hear your opinion about this, and if those that has had several spawns in one tank can confirm if it is WC or F1's?

I have had wild and F1 fish spawn in the same tank but all males where wild up to 4 males spawned in a 60 gallon tank talk about reduced territory is a 5 gallon tank with a single male and female breeding every month with no decoration or gravel but this is pushing it to the limit.
