Well, its been around 4 months since my female pooped out a billion babys.They are now getting big enough to feed to my oscars.The biggest ones are around 1 1/2, and the smallest are from a different female which had all albino's,and they are about 3/4 of an inch long. The biggest ones get scooped out of the 100 gallon water trough outside and dangled under the surface of the Oscar tank, CHOMP!!! R.I.P. lil' feeders



oh yeah, they are Convict cichlids.

check out these pictures I took today when I was cleaning the water trough they live in.I put them in a 10 gallon tank while I was cleaning and noticed that there was just so many that I had to share!!so enjoy.they will ALL BE EATEN SOON!!!

yes imntbatman you got it!!!! I used to sell them to my LFS, but he packed up and moved 30 miles away(2 far for me to drive 2 make a profit) so why not feed them to ****** and M.C. the Oscar!! :roll:

That's a lot of fish! Kinda sad though :( I don't think I'd be able to feed them to the other fish!
