well im not an expert but here what good info i can give you
-how long it takes to give birt can var from half and hour to 36 hours
-to care for the fry you will need either a fry tank, breeding net, and make sure you keep lots of live plants so the fry can hide inside of them
-as for the rate, I think it can vary
-fry should be fed around 4 times a day
-water temp should be around 75 and the more water changes, the faster they will grow
hope this helps
