Archocentrus siquia is quite easy to breed. This species forms fantastic pair bonds. As with most cichlids, the female will become plumper and fill with eggs prior to spawning. Female coloration also increases dramatically as the fish court and begin spawning rituals
Archocentrus siquia is a cave spawner like most Archocentrus. During spawning and continuing into brood care the fish become drab. Spawns range anywhere from 150-500 eggs. This is mostly dependent on the age and size of the female. The eggs hatch in about four days post spawn and by 10 days are free swimming. The fry grow quickly and are easy to raise on baby brine shrimp or crushed flake.
