Any SERINs pro? [Tips needed]

Hi All!

I'd like to host a pair of serins in my live plants aviary (height: 3m, width:2m, depth: 3.5m) which already hosts 2 canaries. Now, I was told they are difficult to breed. Is there anyone who can give me some tips about serins, like type of nests, food, etc...? Help is greatly appreciated! Btw I'm talking about European serins!

Thanks in advance,
Alan

These are tiny birds (known as European Serin or Serinus Serinus) which descend from the Serins family. Here's a picture: http://gallery.photo.net/photo/5334513-lg.jpg
