Cichlid Aquarium

South American Cichlid Tank

[williamblansett]

There is a reason those two young Oscars are at the top of the tank. Those bad little adult Convicts are beating up on the Oscars. If two or more mated pairs of Convicts are formed, that tank will lose both Oscars and some of the Convicts. Not enough hiding places for the other Convicts and there won't be anywhere the Oscars can hide. That being said, there are ways exceptions but I would keep a close eye on the Oscar's and smaller Convicts with a couple of rescue tanks ready.
