Most of time they already pregnant before you you buy them from retailer.Females may give babies 3-4 times even seen absence of males because of their tendency of holding sperms.
They are live bearers which means they does not lay eggs,they directly give birth to young fry.They can do well in small aquariums.They tends to eat their babies just after givingbirth so you need to separate the babies from their mother as well as other tank mates.Sometime they try to chase other tank mates with larger fin.To avoid stress put 1 male with 2-3 female.So you require lots of hiding places or breeding net or breeding box will serve the need.
