It is hard to see the fry but they are there.

Now something not everyone expected- here is the rest of the picture.

If you can see, the father is a black convict. This was an accident, i thought i had two females but what happened is the guy at the store got the wrong fish for me :facepalm: and the fish they netted was a male. I was kinda mad at first but now i am very happy. So i am going to keep the fry and/or feed the fry to my african cichlids in the 55 gallon. What do you guys think???
 
Black convicts and pink convicts are the same species so if you were worried about hybrids don't be. Convicts are great fish and shouldn't be used as feeders
