[devder1]

im tryin 2 culture some infusoria
any other suggestions?

That sounds good enough. Since your asking for more foods though you could get New Life Spectrum Crumbles if your fry is large enough, its a good staple food.

hmmm aright they look pretty good
im out of brine shrimp and im gettin worried about how well they can eat the cyclops

 

[NotoriousSway]

IMO, for convict fry quality crushed flakes is good enough. Anything else is just a treat.

I'm movin em 2 they're own 20gal growout wen they r big enough
Wut size shud they b b4 I move em? Wut size shud they b b4 I sell em?! Thx!

To move them, free swimming stage should be good enough. Most people wait till there 1"+ to sell any med-lg sized cichlids. I wouldn't expect to get much for convict fry though, alot of people use them as feeder for there predators.
