Does anybody know if two breeding convicts (about 7cm and 5cm) and their fry could be moved into a 30L tank with no other occupants

i dont know what a convict is but if its a new tank the adult would have to be hardy to survive and the fry probably wont survive at all besides the stress of the move may cause th convicts to eat the fry

Dont feel bad I confuse myself too
everyone loves the almighty spork queen

yes, as i have done it, however i did have alot of dead of fry due to the move, but i still have a few left.


but a less than 10 gallon tank isn't enough room.

the move, yes they can do, but a small tank = no.

convicts + fry need a 30 + gallon tank.
