I have a pair of convicts in my 65Gallon and they have got fry, so heres some pics and im going to keep this thread updated with new pics of the adults+fry whenever somthing new happens .
Sorry about the algae on the glass showing up, i need to clean it soon but i dont wanna disturb the convicts.
Shawnie i need to clean the glass on the front of my tank but i dont want to disturb the convicts so should i wait until the fry are free swimming and are not near the front of the tank until i clean it?
nopers its fine to stick your hand in and wipe it down...just make sure your hands are cleaned in hot water without any soaps or lotions etc!
mom n dad wont like it but it wont bother the fry...my convicts come after ANYTHING that come even near the tank on the outside...they chase a finger like its bad!
Haha my little sister had been pointing at the fish and poking the glass, so anyway i was cleaning fingerprints off of my glass and the male started flaring at the tissue even though i was outside the tank

lol, well atleast you know yours are good parents, i think my males doing a superb job of protecting the fry!, but the females terrible , she sits their being a great mom keeping the fry together, but as soon as i come for a look she swims off and the male has to take control .
