There's no record of them being spawned in captivity. One problem with breeding them in captivity would be the size of tank necessary to make them happy in a group of male and females. Other than that, it's probably possible to breed them in captivity - it's simply that the proportion of people that have tanks of suitable size tanks [1000-2000 liter, 250-500g or so] are so much smaller than people who have tanks big enough for the smaller specis of fish.
