A little research would answer all these questions...

1. Both male and female should weigh over 50 grams.
2. It's best to keep them separate until the female is ovulating due to the risk of the male wanting to breed all the time and causing fights. I also believe that keeping the male separate helps build up the urge to breed so when the female does ovulated he is ready to go.
3. Yes as long as you don't cross albino strains you can breed them. Though you will just get a bunch of normals that are het for albino.
4. Vermiculite
5. 81-83 for female
87-89 for male
85 for mixture .

I highly suggest doing months of research before attempting to breed. These were all basic questions that could have been found using google in about 10 minutes. Also know the risks of breeding such as male prolapse, egg binding, loss of weight, deformed babies, etc.
