breeding B/N Plecos

i was just wondering do you need to pull the babies from the last spawn to get mom and dad to have the next spawn? also how often do females lay their eggs?

It helps to move the fry....that's why I remove Dad, and cave/eggs, to another tank (5/10 gal) til he releases them...then after a day, or so...shake the rest from the cave, and return Dad/cave back to the original tank..... If they get going in rhythm... I've had most BN's spawn every couple of weeks, or so.... some of the other BN's don't spawn as often, tho...nor have as many fry per spawn....Zebras, for example...
