Convict ????

[convicts94]

So i have couple a pairs of convicts and my 2 inch male has bigger hump on the head then my 5 inch male???? What makes their hump grow big?? cuz i would like my 5 in male to look like the 2 in one.

If I put my male con with a female his hump becomes more pronounced, and the size of the hump is dependent on genetics. Feed your fish good food, and do regular water changes, this will help your fish reach maximum potential.

i feed em hikari red and green ones and do w/c every week. i have 75 gallon how many inches of water should i take out?

Depends on how stocked your tank is but I would do a minimum of 25% per week....I do 25% twice a week on my tanks.

I do 25% weekly. I give blood worms and sometimes guppies for treats.

ok with that many in there you should be doing like 50% 2x a week, a do 50% once a week but my tanks are nearly as stocked as yours, and unless they are all under 3in then their growth is probably being stunted already, what are your parameters? and yes to get the best hump possible for the individual fish you must feed good food, have clean water and a mate always helps but like stated overall it depends on genetics
