My convicts are about to breed again, I can feel it and I was wondering if I could put the parents into a 50L tank, let them lay the eggs and take them out? Because they get about 2cm in the big tank then just disappear.

i always leave the parents in the tank with the fry, and i have had no problems. the stress from the move will delay their breeding, so i think it is best to leave them.

After they breed this time and the fry are gone, take the female out and put her in the 50L tank. After a week put the male in there, once they breed agian leave the male in there for about a week. Then you can leave the female in there for a long while until it gets too crowed in the tank.
