Keeping an all male convict tank!

[brian campbell]

This is a project a did almost a year ago and I havent posted this short video I made. Basically this was a short experiment to determine if you could house an all male convict tank. The idea came from hearing about people who keep all male african tanks. Ive always been a super fan to convicts I always wished I had more male convicts but was unable to justify keeping more than one until I did this.

These were all buisers and were all fin shreded when I got them. The fins all grew back actually quickly.

how long have they been together
like the idea alot, always wanted to grow out a beast con with huge nucal hump recon this could be best way to do it

Pretty cool idea. Tank looked kinda bare though.

Yeah they looked quite bored but it's still a good idea

An all JD tank could be cool too

Thanks for posting this...exactly the information I was looking for last week. I had no idea how well male cons would get along without a female getting in the mix. I understand that each fish is different, but this gives me a little more confidence in trying.

All these con threads make me wish I wouldn't have got sunfish. Maybe I'll toss a baby con in there when they get a bit bigger.

That is pretty cool I wonder if the same method could be applied to an all male cryptoheros tank of nanolutes, sajics and panamensis

I think an all female Convict tank with one sturdy strong male Convict would be ideal....... For him
