Breeding Sevs and convicts


shane

Recommended Posts

Am I ment to take these guys out of my set up once they all start laying eggs

And give them a tank to themselfs ?

My Sevs have layed eggs 4 x now and have eaten their eggs each time

My convicts have dug themselfs a whole betwen the glass and a rock and have layed eggs under the rock in a cave like thing. There is noway anyone else can get to their eggs they are guarding them for dear life but I guess their fry will be eaten

Is it normal for people just to let this happen time and time again in their tanks

Or am I meant to take them all out and give them their own tank to let them breed

Any help would be great

Don't count on it.. Convicts are world champs in raising young even in a crowded tank.

It's really up to you if you want to try breeding them... nothing wrong with leaving them in the tank and young gets eaten but if you do want to raise them then yes best to separate them and raise them in another tank.
