What size tank???

Also, I have never bred plecos but have heard you need

-a lot of driftwood
-lots of caves
-a tank 30G or larger I think, not sure on that though
-PVC pipes
-Dim Lighting
-Good Food like some fresh veggies(cucumber, zucchini, potato, etc)

good luck, I want to breed some of those fish too

Easy, it's a display tank. Pull the big females and let them pop in a separate tank or breeder net, grow out fry in a separate tank.

I don't know about the dim light thing, I keep my plecos in a regular planted tank.

You don't *have* to use those pleco breeding cave things, you can use half buried terra cotta pots or even large diameter pvc tubes as well.

Some species of plecos are only active in subdued/dim lighting or they will hide during the day. EX: Clown Pleco
