Fairly easy ,once you get a pair.Put a flower pot on it's side,but don't have it facing the front of the tank.You could also use a piece of slate.Water should be neutral to slightly alkaline and 82 deg or so.
If they do spawn,the eggs should hatch in a couple day's.Jd's make good parents and you can leave them with the fry
untill they are about 1/2" or so .then move them to a rearing tank.
