Til a pair emerges and starts fending off the rest from it 
Then it wont be long.. And a 20 is fine for those.. It's not the best but i've seeen much worse.. Like 4 large males and 20 feamles in a 30.. OMG!! That was nothin nice... They all co exixted though.. I even offered to relieve the person of a few And did.. They are long gone now.. But i have a female waiting for a new male

In a month or two your next post will be how can I get rid of all these convict fry! They breed like rabbits! I have had small juveniles barely an inch in size breed. Now I use their fry as feeder fish for my electric catfish.
Good luck with them, but I don't think you will need it.

It depends on the fish. Cons usually don't take long. Are they big enough to breed yet?
