I have a pair of Black Convicts where the female has laid eggs
on the inside of a hollowed out rock, how long until the eggs hatch ? Also, should the fry be transported to another tank ? They are in a 55 gallon tank with an adult Red Devil and an algae eater. |

![]() I have a pair of Black Convicts where the female has laid eggs on the inside of a hollowed out rock, how long until the eggs hatch ? Also, should the fry be transported to another tank ? They are in a 55 gallon tank with an adult Red Devil and an algae eater. 2-4 days depending on temperature. Another 4-6 days till they're free swimming. You'll have a busy tank once they come out. Momma will take on that Red Devil to keep it away from the 'kids' I've had a couple of 'feeder' sized convicts spawn in a 125 with other 8-12" fish, and the convicts managed to raise over a dozen! It was a pain catching and getting them out! .. Convicts are too good at parenting! .. Bob |
