easy breeding cichlids

[ryanj612]

hey what is the easiest cichlid to breed? i have a 30 gallon tank with other fish in it.

 

[Citrinellus]

Convicts.

 

[Jmart159]

Convicts breed very easily in a 30 but they would more than likely kill the other fish.

Cutteri also readily spawn. They will be about the same in aggression when breeding as convicts IME. HRP's are another option, and they are not quite as aggressive, but would probably beat on anything else in the tank.

Cons x3. Just add water.

dude seriously? the guy is asking for a straight answer the least you can do is give him one and not jerk him around (some people new to fish might take you seriously) and to OP yes cons, cutteri, HRP are all good choices, could probably do salvinis or red ceibals too but the main question here is what are the other fish in the tank? this will determine what you could add to it, most readily available cichlids are fairly easy to breed, you just have to give them good clean water and some space to themselves

well you cant put jags in a 30 gallon but they are easy to breed. i know there african cichlids but jewels will breed just as much as cons.
