Hi I have a 20g high and my convicts spawned almost 2 weeks ago. Their are close to a hundred babies. They are free swimming now. The parents are fierce defenders and seem to be good parents. I have a South American Bumblebee Catish in this tank will he eat the babies? Or do you think the parents will fend him off?
The male has very long fins and a big nuchal hump. He is about 2". The female Is 1.5". Their is a third convict in this tank, male, and he hides 24/7 and is chased away as soon as they see him.
I ask cuz the lights are going out in 49 minutes and then the catfish will be coming out of hiding shortly thereafter. I don't mind if some get eaten as long as a few remain.
