what is the best way of moving cichlid fry from one tank to another. Also what is a good temperature to keep the tank at?
 
I'd say your best bet would be to herd them into a glass rather than net scoop them (that's if you can get your hand in there with mom and/or dad).

As far as temp goes, I'd assume 78f would be best. I don't know if this is true with convict fry, but some smaller cichlids have metabolism issues that effect their growth rate if the temp is too high.
