I’m trying to breed my long finned black skirt tetras - 2 male 2female together.Im using a 10G tank (soft water, pH6.8, 79F, low light). The males are chasing the females but they’re not scattering any eggs. Both females are round and heavy with eggs. Any suggestions? This is my first time trying, so basing all this on YouTube videos.

What I would do is feed them heavily with live or frozen brine shrimp or bloods worms to get them into breeding condition add a layer of Javan moss on the bottom of the tank and put  the tank were it will get natural sun light Frist thing in the morning in my experience most tetras breed early in the morning and natural light encourages breeding
