Warning Convict Cichlids Do NOT get on with most other fish so do not add to Community Aquarium - Plus Tips on Breeding. I introduced one pair of Convict Cichlids into a community aquarium (a guy in a pet shop shop told me it would be alright to to this). The aquarium was packed with silver angel fish, mollies, guppies, neon tetra, coolie loaches, plecos, snails etc. It was planted & thriving but these convicts very quickly killed off every other fish & pulled up plants & generally caused havoc. I moved them into a 1ft x 1ft tank & they bred almost immediately. They are great parents & fun to watch, moving substrate around to create mounds & bare areas. They gather their babies in their mouths when they sense danger & then let them back out when they feel safe again. They are a striking fish - the male is the one with orange on his flanks. Babies grow fast & before you know it, you have hundreds of adults! Please check out my other animal videos & subscribe to support this channel. Thanks for watching.
