Chuck,

I`ve read some literature stating that the female Heterandria formosa can
store
sperm for as much as 4 or 5 different broods.

Several years ago Dick Stober called me looking for some male fish. However,
the females he had started dropping babies without any males in the tank.

Regards,

Rob
