You guys might remember my booze and cichlid theory.
Well, Here is my theory on convicts.
Why are Convicts so aggressive? All they do is eat fight and breed.
Most hobbyists will buy a few fish from the same tank raise them up and then they breed.
I was guilty of this when I was a kid. Introduce them back into the public. They aren’t realizing they aren’t making a new blood line. I am wondering if there is too much inbreeding.
Did this happen to convicts to often. They all seem to be creatures of instinct. I cannot think of any other fish like the Convict with their intense breeding and fighting needs. No matter how big the tank is once they pair they take half the tank.
These are just my thoughts, I think the Convicts are a bit nuts but I still love them.
