I have a 55 I am trying to go all black convicts in. How many can I have in one 55 gal the fish are small fish so I figured I can have 8 or 10.
Thanks all! I appreciate all the advice. I do the research before I buy. I have 4 but they ended up being all females. I want a few males!
20 highly aggressive fish just seems like a terrible idea IMO. I would just stick with around 4 in a 55 it won't look empty. You will have 4 4-6 inch fish cruising around it will look good. Just be prepared for tons of fry.
I want fry!!!
Then I'd get some more and once you find a male/males let them pair and remove the rest
I started a Facebook page in my area. It's a place for people like myself to link up locally and so when one day I have 1000000 fry, I will have a platform to maybe give some away!
The cons probably won't stop haha. But that's cool I love breeding jack Dempseys.
You might have to. Do you still have your jacks? Are they large if so they could help take care of your fry. Nice looking tank btw I like it!
