GT randomness

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
As an aside, I've noticed since keeping him alone for the last while; his nuchal hump has basically disappeared. It was quite prominent when he was part of a group and dominant, hoping it returns!
 
I think without tank mates with which to spur his dominance he won't grow much of one.
 
I've got a pink convict called bronson
Can't sex it yet
I've just got into convicts after being gt mad also lol

Lol I think both display quite cunning tendencies, that make up for the sheer aggression shown in larger cichlids. I used to watch in disbelief when my convict would ambush other fish from behind plants, or slowly drift up to groups before ramming into them at full speed :/

I never kept convicts so be interesting!
It's in CT with juvi gts but he don't get chases off them only the biggest juvi gt is 6months 3cm
not big as your one who by the way is awesome!
Boyfriend bred the black and white convicts ended up with 1000 he gave them away in the end lol
but any tips for convict keeping
sorry not hijacking your gt thread lol

We seem to both like gts and convicts :D lol

Terrors are just that, do you think when they get bigger could cause problems?
Obviously they're in the CT temporarily but is it OK if I ever put a gt and convict together, what would the set up be? Obviously gonna sell the juvi gts but keeping the biggest one who I named gil as he has a deformed gil and probably couldn't sell him anyway but obviously removing when gets threat to my CT but is gt /convict together a possibility?

Also, WOW at your trigon!!!

My current GT is only 3 inches, you'll see other members with some truly amazing adult specimens :)

My old GT was mellow until 5 inches, then killed everything; my current one attacks everything, even danios relentlessly. Convicts are good survivors though, I'd add one once the GT gets some size and depending on the size of your set-up.

Thanks for the compliment, currently having a few problems with it due to white spot and me being impatient with treatment etc; still making mistakes as I'm only human lol.
