I'am new to breeding Kribs and I was wonering if I have all the proper stuff to breed them in cuz they aren't breeding. Right now I have a male and a female wich I'm positive they are a true pair in a 10g tank with lots of plants and clay pots overturned to breed in. I jacked up the temp and feed them guppy fry(wich I bred myself not from a LFS) and a good flake they have been together for about 1 month now and the female wants to breed but the male chases her away. Now I have another true female and I tried switching females but that didn't help. Now I have a 40g community tank wich the lone female is in I tried putting them in there but the male still had no interest in either female. Also could this be a problem the male is about 3 inches and the female is about 1.5 inches could this size difference be the problem or am I doing something wrong. Or else myabe I need a new male

Any info will be greatly appreciated
 
mabe the female is not big/mature enough, google kribensis and see what they have under "breeding"
