Default Mbuna and Convicts..


I know these are different world cic's. I have been using the Con for a
target fish in my mbuna tank.. Anyone else use Convicts for this sort of
practice?? The Con seems to be thriving fine in the water. She seems to get
rough treatment from the mbuna from time to time, but fairs very well.. I do
not know for certain if the introduction of this fish has spurred the mbuna
on to breed.. The kenyi and socolofi breedshortly after the Con was
introduced.. Recently my Labs breed and my peacocks have a mouthful.. (
actually I think it is because we have to move is why they are breeding like
this..*LOL* )..

heh I have a rogue blue eye in my african tank, he seems to be the brunt of
aggression for the samller fish as well, but still fares well. I was
actually sold the blue eyes as africans, and only discovered after they
weren't.
