How does it give birth?
What should I watch for?
It looks so fat it might burst

I saw a couple of the barbs (not sure which sexes) swimming really quickly in a tight circle, nose to tail, like dogs who get excited to meet each other, but really fast. Not sure if that means anything..

Would I have to have a tank I can move them into in order to keep the eggs from being eaten, or would a little plastic 'breeding cup' work (like that hangs on the rim of the aquarium.)
I checked the link posted above (obviously looked at the tiger section) and it only says that theyre 'typical egg scatterers'

Thanks for any info.
