As someone said in my other topic, convict breeding is too easy....and its happened.

I was supposed to have got three females, but i noticed that one was male the other night...and there loads of fry already.

I've taken the male out and put him in another tank (on his own) temporarily until i return him tomorrow.

Should i take the female out aswell as she keeps chasing the other female convict who keeps venturing out of hiding.

And most importantly...what do i do with the fry? If anyone in the S####horpe area or who is willing to travel, then its all yours

Should i scoop it out as soon as possible?

All help is appreciated.

***this is also posted in the cichlid section but im really after a quik reply, sorry. Also, thanks for filtering out part of the name of where i live :p***
