Mega convict
While at my local fish store buying some frozen krill for my puffers I ran across a mammoth male convict. I inquired about him and was told I could take him home for 5 bucks as he was overrun with normal sized cons. He has a nuchal hump that rivals a male Midas and his total length is right around 6.5" .
Now here's the kicker. Put him in my big tank with my trimac and he wasn't having it so I moved him into my community with my Red Devils, chanco, kanna, and baby trimacs. And a couple of others.....
Thought he would get along great, and that's an understatement
My wild caught cryptoheros kanna which I thought was a male turned out to be a female and she laid eggs tonight and they are guarding them. My mind is blown!
Pics coming soon
