I am watching one of my reds laying eggs as I speak. Don't know if the other one is a male or not. Both of the two reds I have are chasing the others in the tank away from the eggs. I can see the female laying the eggs but do mt know what to look for from the possible male if he is fertilizing the eggs

If they hatch you'll know.

If You can see the male do runs and if you look close you can also see the sperm.

The same way the female lays the eggs the way the male makes a pass over the laid eggs,so watch for the male's run
