May be a rather silly question, I have had a pair of common jewel cichlids for several years. They were inseparable. However unfortunately the female has passed, thinking just old age. My question is, would I be able to introduce another female with him? I know they can be finicky but odd thing now is he is hanging out with a female convict and I know nothing will come. What are the chances of him accepting a new female or pick of a few juveniles?
