You know the first time when my convict spawn i was like "this is once in a lifetime thing" And 3 moth passes and all i see convict was straight up baby factory
This is excellent because it's true from beginning to end the behavior of convict parents and spawning after fry are about 3weeks. First soon as my female laid eggs and they Hatch she started attacking male..took him out..about a week later she began to show colour again..the fry were about 5.6wks she started attacking them.Moral of the story is..once fry mouths are big enough at 3weeks parents kick them out of area to make space for the new batch. Amazing how aggressively they defend their eggs when first laid at fry until 3-4weeks..Parents disown them and consider them a competition for food and taking up space for the new batch. Amazing that fish have their own methods and rules of survival. Fish feel like humans to some degree after the kids are 18yrs they are no longer responsible to take Care of that teen. They are considered young adults and on their own to make their own way. Convicts take care of their young 3 weeks that's a lot shorter than 18yrs plus 😅

hi, i have a breeding pair of convict cichlids, when they are breeding the male direktly will eat the eggs, pleas what should i do, he will akways eat the eggs direktly when they come out of the female. thank u so much !
I have a female convict cichlid and a male snow white, soon after the eggs hatched, suddenly the fry are gone and so i separate the parents and seen only few fry, what should I do?
How do I clean the tank during this 4-weeks? I normally suck up the dirt from the gravel weekly. It is almost impossible not to remove the eggs or fries as well.
I bought 2 to get the water cycle in my larger tank going. they ended up having to sets of babies. I ended up keeping the two and the babies that survived i gave a way
I got like 4 schools. Wow they look like 100’s of them. I crush the pellets the most I can, will they eat from the same food or what exactly should I feed them?

My convicts laid eggs and some of them are moving a bit like in the video.. but number of frys are getting lesser day by day.. can someone tell me they are dead or consumed by parents.. or if dead what could be the reason..???
My convicts are in my new 20 gallon tank that is just one month old and still in cycling process.. there are two convict breeding pair in the same tank. Both pair laid eggs.. but very few fry are left in each clay pot (3-4 fry’s).. My convicts are just matured and they just paired up a week after I introduced them to tank.. and the tapwater here in my city (dubai) is poor for breeding as it contains high amount of chloramine and chlorine so i use a prime water conditioner, and I do 20% water change every three days,, still my frys keeps dying day by day :( Reading all these what suggestions you can give.. ?
Thank you so much, our Convicts just spawned. The last week or so the male has stayed secluded and this morning my husband saw babies. Is it just as acceptable to move the parents at 3 weeks because we really don't have a place for all the babies accept in the tank they are in with mom & dad, they can go back into a community tank.
+Karen Stump the parents will spawn again in 3-4 weeks and become very aggressive towards the rest of the fish in the community tank! Now, if you will take out the newborn fry and mix them with the old brood. The older fry, depending in their size, might harm the new born fry...
Sucked it up never actually swallowed. Gave me a good scare first time my mouth brooder popped out all her babies I didn't even know until then and they were all free swimming so not new born babies lol. Cichlids am I right. African cichlids breeding Ina 10g temp... Life finds a way.
+ruata kl yes, it can happen. It happended only once with my convicts, but it took few months until the male was ready again to breed. For better chances always take male and female which didn't breed before
so do the fry need there own tank after 3 weeks im 2 weeks in and I have the parents in a 29 gallon with there fry im getting a bigger tank in a week or 2 but I don't want those babys to die . what do I do
I just discovered the fry in my tank today; the problem is that my convict cichlids live with a medium-large red-eared slider turtle. Is it okay to move them to a separate tank even though they are only a day or two old?
@@UriShasha Most of them have died, and I am struggling to figure out the cause. They were all really healthy and were eating very well, but then they began to slowly die off. I have kept them in a half-filled 90 gallon tank that has a cycled marineland magniflow 360. The only thing that I could think of is that I probably have not done enough water changes, though if it was a problem with the water quality I would think that they would have all died at once. Anyways, about 5 or 6 of them are still alive and I would like to keep them alive. Any advice?
I recommend moving them to their own tank. but if it is not possible your tank needs to be very large tank, ones they pair off the will be very much teretorial..
@Samantha Deyzel well, there are actually different color variants from different locations. AND they aren't African Cichlids, they are American. Lake Malawi is African. Wow... lol
I have a pet turtle and decided to get him two friends because he seemed lonely, I know it seems like common sense but I had no clue that they could mate! I’m taking care of them, And the fishes are great parents defending the babies from my turtle. Any tips?
Get more aquariums, convict cichlids are capable of spawning every 3 weeks and before laying the next batch of eggs they will start rejecting the previous brood of fry...
I just saw the egg today i shifted the fish along with eggs in a separate aquarium but female is getting very aggressive what should i do should i shift the male to other aquarium
The aquarium light is on 5-6 hours a day more than that you will get algae to bloom, and there is also the day light/room light for about 12 hours a day.
Of course, but there are fish which will destory live plants. Please watch these videos as well - th-cam.com/video/7WUHCWU008k/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/q6MKFNA4rOE/w-d-xo.html

+SAM The SHAM 😅 i love convict cichlid for this. They are great parents (until their fry turn 3 weeks old 😉)
LOL.. i love your explanation..
Hey!I want help.
whenever my femal convict gives birth my male convict eats them instead of protecting them.
This is rare, usually both are great parents. Might be that it is stress for some reason. Did you moved them to their own tank?
At least they asked... usually people just get confused and sit there. Everyone gets a bit demanding sometimes...
Will a breeding box inside the tank work?
Not recommended
how do you take them and put them in another tank at this size? netting is not an option i guess
I use a net 😂

Convict cichlids can spawn every 3-4 weeks. They might reject aggressively the old brood when they will be ready to deliver the bext brood. Bottom line, you need to be ready with a new tank...😂
Now wonder why they are so aggressive they have a hard life at babies the parents kick them out or they die
Convict cichlids are one of the best fish parents among aquarium fish....most fish eat the eggs immediately after the female lays them
