What is your goal?
the best age depends on wether you want a high number of eggs, optimal quality fry or just breed them in general.

I am a beginner so i want to breed them at the earliest age possible just to get some experience and then move on to achieving best quality. would the fish be affected by spawning at a young age ??

The fish can lose their colors if they are breed when they are to young. it is best if the fish is about 4 years when y start breeding them.

are you going to let them breed naturally or are you going to use artifical fertilization or manual spawning
