Convict x Parrot

[coltiger1975]

I just got a female parrot fish from Kijiji a couple days ago. She is laying eggs but no male for her. So I have my big convict male which is around 5 inches, I introduced him to her but he is not quite as big as her. She bullies him around.

I have a divider I can use on a 55 gallon, would the divider be the best way to try to breed them?

Divider should work just fine if you have no hiding spots for the male. How big is the male? And would you be able to take some pics of the 2? Also don't worry if they don't breed right away, it usually takes some time for them to get used to each other. Parrots and convicts tend to be really easy to breed but once it starts they don't tend to stop lol.
