Hello,

I have a male convict cichlid and a female oscar in the same tank. Would I be able to breed them? Would they guard the fry and would the fry be able to breed?
[ I have a red tail catfish to eat any fry that I don't want ]
Thanks!:D

I bought it as a female and it is 10 inches long so i believe the previous owners.

Its never been done and besides... IMO its wrong to cross breed species. This is how the legitimate species get diluted by impure rubbish.

I wouldn't be worried about trying to cross Oscars I'd be worried about that red tail catfish it is going to eat a lot more than fry... Don't know the size but doesn't matter I'll give your convict a couple months then it's lunch meat.

Unless it's in a different tank?
