600+ Gallon Cichlid Pond

How is this progressing? have the Convicts bred to feed the Oscars? In my experience, the Convict fry are not liked very well as a feeder fish. They just tend to over populate and annoy the other inhabitants.
I have about 15 baby convicts. As you stated dont think my Oscars like them. Might be getting rid of the convicts this spring.
Winter is around the corner and we already has some nights in the 30's. Pond has been modified for the winter. Oscars are getting big. The convicts are having babies. I ended up with 6 Oscars, 3 Jack Dempseys, 1 Managuensis, 6 Convicts(now 20+) and 4 Supper Red Bristlenose Plecos. I did add 3 clown loaches, never seen them again.
I am looking into a catfish that will control the convict situation or just get rid of the convicts. I would like to get a Pacu(red belly) Im a fraid if I ever tear down the pond, I wouldn't be able to find the Pacu a proper home.
Bog has a few leaks. Will be working on that this winter.
