20-30 gal tank. HOB filter, heater, gravel/sand, clay pot. Add water, turn heater to 78degrees F, cycle tank!, add 1 male convict, 1 female convict. Wait 2 weeks and BAM!

If you have fry, skip to step 14 in the above article.

Have fun!

How do u set up a tank for convict frys? and what can u feed them ?

You could feed them boogers. They do eat it. They will eat bird seed. But just because they can eat most things, doesnt mean you should feed them crap. Flakes/pellets, along with some brine shrimp, bloodworms and other frozen foods are all good.
