Cons are so underrated, even by me. I never post up pics of my breeding pair, even though I think they're one of the most gorgeous fish I own. So, here's a couple I took quickly tonight.

that is stunning!! ive never ever had a female convict that looks anything like that! all mine have been boring!! thx for sharing!!
 
real nice pair. the dorsals on both are really impressive
 
I love the long flowing fins on the male and intense orange on the female. I want a pair but don't want the fry, how can I "fix" convicts. LOL

I'm in the same boat...I love my pair, but I don't want all the fry they produce. So, I just leave things alone. Every few weeks, they'll spawn, and raise the babies for a week or two. When they're ready to spawn again, if I haven't removed the previous batch, they eat them to make room for the new ones. They're happy doing what they do best, I get to enjoy them without a million little cons everyone. Occasionally they'll let one or two survive to grow up, but I just feed them to one of the Midas.

Thanks for all the comments guys :)
 
Real nice convicts.
