what are you feeding them...might be the food as will.
 
UPDATE!!!!!!
Hey everyone that posted on this thread or anyone thats reading: (which by the way this thread is a few weeks old)
BUT
My convicts had like 200 babies onnnnn.. Monday. The fish with the tumor or whatever it was.. is fine. Im guessing it had something to do with breeding then. There are SOOO many little babies!!! The parents are adorable theyre very protective they just hover above the babies and play and i swear they kiss theyre so happy =) I took the silver dollars out but my cats are still in there.
Will the babies survive??? & do i need to feed them anything special or do anything different? Will my gravel vac suck them up bc it needs vacuumed...

Peas & TY all!!

Yes the gravel vac would suck them up so be careful when doing that. Other fish will try to eat some babies if they get a chance. As for feeding the babies, if their yolk sac is gone you can feed them fish flakes really crushed up. They also have special food too that you can buy. Lots of baby fish love live brine shrimp too. DO those other copns still have those marks?
