44 gallon convict tank

[ahfu25]

I just bought a 44 gallon bow front tank for my D cough cough) daughters room. I took some tuffa rock from my 55 gallon and put it in the 44 for bacteria and a ac70. The ph is 8.2, will convicts breed in this high of a p.h

the Ph will decrease...I did exactly the same thing for my 2 youngest boys, gave them a confirmed pair of convicts ( they were my first 30 something years ago..)...they love it, I love it...it got the guys surfing the net, not messaging with friendas, but searching the forums and whatever!!! Phantastic! Your daughter will love it!

most probably yes.

wherever theres water.

If the water is wet... convicts will breed.

The adapt well to water conditions, the eggs could be effected by the high pH and not hatch, I do not know for sure though. I have breed cons sucessfully in 6.6pH and 7.6pH

Good luck

I guess this one falls under "There are no stupid questions, just stupid people that ask those questions".

Well... I could be wrong, but NO there is no dry water.

yes they will breed in that ph. I cleaned a 29 with baking soda and a little was left and i ened up with very basic water and they bred fine
