I will soon be getting some marbled hatchetfish, pepper corydoras, and more black neon tetras for the 40 im setting up. I would prefer no breeding, but is it likely these fish will breed? I will also have one male gourami, but there's no breeding there . My big concern is the Cory's, I've heard they breed easily, and a few wigglers is one thing, but a batc

If they breed they are egg layers and will typically eat their own eggs. Unless you have a heavily planted tank with LOTS of hiding spots I doubt you'll get fry.
