I have a pair of Convict Cichlids which have begun to reproduce. So far there have been 2 broods of babies in the past 2-3 months. Now my tank is being overrun by babies. I probably have about 25-30 of them swimming around in the tank right now. I know that I need to separate the pair if I don't want more breeding, but I don't know what to do with the little ones. My biggest concern right now is that as they grow, they will start breeding as well. I have never had to deal with this situation in the past.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
I am posting the same problem with pond goldfish. apparently the demise of my male Koi eliminated the natural population control in the goldfish community who now total five dozen at the latest census. Come and get them they are no cost. Franconia Va 703.209.7893
