I had Convict for over 5years they are very cool fun fish to have, if you want to make family bigger you will need a divider. They only problem is once you get a group of 5 or more living together its impossible to introduce new fish to the tank, new chichlids. I had as many as 20 living pretty peacefully in my tank. I bielive they are by the easiest fish to care for, if you want breeding you should raise temp between 80 -82.

this is week 5 no fry. Convict is always in the log and rarely comes out, when she does Jack chases her back. is this normal? saw them fighting a few times, Jack always back down. Today Jack and Con were outside swimming near each other for a few minutes.
Thank you,
Stephen
