There are numerous articles on spawning Hypancistrus in Shane's World, plus dozens of threads on the subject here on the board. Definitely start there and then feel free to ask about clarification of anything that doesn't make sense. It's a pretty broad topic to just try to hit all of what you'd need to know in a post ;).

i think no light might be best. aren't they all nocturnal? I mean don't cover the tank with something dark, just use ambient sunlight in the room to supply them the light cues of day and night. unless you have live plants in there -then do around 6-8 hours of tank light for the plants.
