Native Habitat: Central
America
Temperament: Aggressive
Feeding: Thawed
frozen and live adult brine shrimp, newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii,
bloodworms, beef heart, small pieces of water packed tuna, and other small live worms
and feeder fish.
Sexing: The
Black Convict Cichlid is a beautifully marked cichlid. Sometimes called Zebra
Cichlid or Convict Cichlid, this fish has a pattern of black stripes on a
grayish background and a greenish tint on the fins. The female has orange
scales on her lower body and dorsal fins and the male is larger, less
colorful, has a steeper forehead and longer fins. As it ages, the male will
acquire a fatty lump on the forehead.
General Comment: A
stunning addition to any aquarium, they are not recommended for the community
tank due to their aggressive tendencies.
The Black Convict Cichlid requires a 30 gallon minimum tank, with a gravel
bottom, rocks and plenty of hiding places among the rocks or some inverted pots.
Floating plants are recommended as a form of cover. Because of their aggressive
nature, Black Convict Cichlids should only be housed with other more aggressive
fish of the same size or larger.
The Black Convict Cichlid is a cave-breeder and will accept a range of water
conditions. To promote breeding, increase the water temperature between 75-79°F.
Some females will spawn between a cave and an open area. The Black Convict
Cichlid readily pairs and forms a patriarch/matriarch family and both the male
and female will care for the young. The fry will respond to signals from both
the male and the female.

 As
all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs.
Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to
state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale
no longer work as 02/22/10.
We are changing our tropical fish
suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back,
because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,
15 years of selling tropical fish online and
safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any
complaints!!!
