What is the easiest to breed that would fit in a 10 G tank?
I have very little space for more tanks but I would love to have some cichlids I have been doing alot of research, but am a little unsure still. Thanks in advance. |

Convicts are NOT fairly small, each one gets about 6 inches in length.
However, they WILL breed anywhere and produce approximately 50 or more fry per clutch of eggs. Since you have stated that you have very little room for more tanks, what would you do with all the fry that these fish produce? I know a lot of pet stores, Petsmart and Petco to name two, who will not take fry no matter what. If you choose to have fish that breed, try guppies or mollies since they will eat as many of the fry as they can when giving birth. Some will survive, but not all of them. Something to think about when choosing 'breeder' fish for a small 10 gallon tank. "jk" wrote in message ... "Christy84065" wrote in message om...
