ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT. I HAVE A 35 GAL TANK WITH ONE PAIR OF
CONVICTS.I ALSO HAVE 100 OR MORE BABY FRY.I NEED TO KNOW WHEN CAN i
FEED THEM.I WAS TOLD TO USE A TOOTHPICK WITH MOIST TIP AND CRUSHED
FLAKES TO A POWDER THEN PLACE THE TOOTHPICK A LITTLE OVER THERE
HEADS.WELL MOM AND DAD DID NOT LIKE THAT AT ALL!!!. I KNOW THAT
CONVICTS ARE GREAT PARENTS BUT IS THERE A TIME YOU SEPARATE THE YOUNG
FROM THERE PARENTS. THEY ARE ALL SWIMMING IN A SCHOOL WITH MOM ON ONE
SIDE AND DAD ON THE OTHER.DID I MENSION DAD HAS IT OUT FOR ME .


Wayne, you don't need to get fancy with these guys. Crumble up some flake
food and throw it in and they will be fine. I did start mine off with live
BBS for the first couple of weeks however I'm sure they would have been fine
without it.
