Convict cichlid was created in 1867.
The Convict Cichlid sibling fight with each other because of the sibling rivalry.
Yes, a striped convict cichlid and a pink convict cichlid can breed together as they are both from the same species, Amatitlania nigrofasciata. Their offspring may display a mix of characteristics from both parents.
Convict cichlids lay hundreds of eggs in one spawning.
Cardinal tetra, catfish, cherry barb, cichlid, clown barb, convict cichlid, and cory are a few.
The Convict cichlid (Amatitlania nigrofasciata) is also known as the Zebra cichlid. They will eat the same flakes and pelets that are available for sale in most pet shops. They also enjoy a suplement of live food such as earth worms etc.
Depending on the species these fish can live up to around 35 years. I have a 19 year old Julidochromis regani "Nsumbu", a Cichlid from Lake Tanganyika.
Win what? be more specific. If you mean in a territorial dispute, an adult fighting fish will get eaten (literally) by and adult convict cichlid. but if the cichlid and the fighting fish are of the same size then the fighting fish would be at an advantage.
anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks it really depends on what africans your talking about.
yeah
Mine? Its fine thanks. If you do suspect that something is wrong with your convict cichlid, or if you want to learn how to take care of convict cichlids. Be sure to check the article that I posted in the related links. It helped me raise 3 sets of babies that came from 2 convict cichlids. After reading the article, I successfully raised over 100 convict cichlid babies and believe it or not, all of them are still living in the tank. Its quite a site to see that many cichlids swimming together in a fish tank. But be warned - when convict cichlids are breeding, they get very aggressive. Especially toward any other kind of fish.
It is quite possible that the Convict cichlid would kill a fish as small and slow as a Betta. I would not try to mix other peaceful species with large aggressive fish like Convicts.
