My multies have bred and I did not do anything to encourage it. They have small batches of fry though usually 3-9 per clutch of eggs.

Any species of the brichardi complex are easy to breed, essentially the Tang equivalent of convicts. Most of the Julies aren't too difficult either once you have an established pair.

I agree with both posts above. Shellies followed by Brichardi and Julies are the easiest to breed.

I was going to say Julies, my father in law had a couple that paired off and they spawned all the time for years.

I would say multis all the way. They are supposed to breed all the time and they form small colonies.
