Captive breeding / propagation

The offspring of Hypoplectrus gemma are possible. Unfortunately, the number of offspring is not large enough to cover the demand of the trade. If you are interested in Hypoplectrus gemma, please ask your dealer for offspring. If you already own Hypoplectrus gemma, try breeding yourself. This will help to improve the availability of offspring in the trade and to conserve natural stocks.
