Hi Cam;

Sexing Corydoras Cats of all types can be tricky. Once they become sexually mature, the females will be more round and have fatter bellies. The best way to get them spawning is to have several and let them do their thing as they become ready. Here is a link to a good page about them with a section on breeding;

Good Luck and keep up with the enthusiasm!!!
