Longer tanks are usually better - I like at least 3 females to one male - frequent water changes will often trigger spawning - I have used australian rainbow fish in the past as dither fish -

30L min., 55 would be better. Lots of hiding places. I like penn plex cliff & caves stuck high on the back of the tank. They look fake, but the dominant fish take over the bottom of the tank and leave the high hiding places alone.
