Do convicts eat their fry. First attempt at keeping convicts and already about 40 fry. Never raised any.

i have bean breeding a pair of pinks every months for about 2 years and they always produce atleast 200 eggs the babies grow faster if left w/ the parents but i have had one batch of babies eat the second set of eggs. i also had 1 tiny 1/4 inch pink kill almost 50 geophagus babies about twice that size so don,t mix babies of different fish together if you do remove them
