Breeding tetras

[dmalone]

Hey everyone. I just noticed that some of my neon tetra's and albino black neon tetra's belly is swelling up. I think they're pregnant (have eggs in their belly), so I put them in my heavily planted cherry shrimp tank so other fish won't eat the eggs (I read up online that cherry shrimp won't eat healthy eggs). Does anyone know how exactly how they breed? Will they crossbreed? Should I put one or two male into the tank?
Thanks before

they'll eat the eggs (neons) I'd look at my thread on a continuos breeding tank. and yes you'll need a male to fertilize the eggs.
