The only Killi fish I have ever heard of is golden wonder killis (Aplocheilus linneatus). We have 4 of them in our tank, they have never bread - that we are aware of - and we are pretty sure we have males & females. We bought ours in a pet store a few years ago and I haven't seen any since. I have never heard of buying and hatching eggs for them. Here is a link with some information on what you need to breed them: http://aqualandpetsplus.com/Minnows,%20Killies,%20Economics.htm
