20L Convict Tank

This is my 20 gallon long Convict tank. I have a breeding pair of convicts with fry, 6 serpae tetra's and a bristle nose pleco.

Are you sure that's a 20l tank? It looks more like 20 gallon's! If it's 20litres that's barely big enough for 5 neon tera's on their own! Nice tank though :D

I appologize, I should've been more clear. It is a 20 Gallon Long aquarium, not 20 liter.

The lack of an Orange stomach is the major indicator for a male. Even at a very small size, most females will be easily noticable because of their orange belly. Males do generally have pointier dorsal fins compaired to the females, but I think with Convicts it's easier to just look at their bellies to find out if it's a male or female. If there is orange on the tummy, it's a female, if there isn't, it's a male.

Convicts in a 20 gallon? Wouldn't they get to big?

No way! way too aggressive!

if you had natural looking gravel i would love your tank but the bright blue gravel kills it. nice fish otherwise.

How big is your tank? sometimes the Male is aggressive to others of the same species if their tank is too small, Guardoing fry or eggs.

i think, but i may be mistaken, that 20 liters is over 3 gallons, and i keep 3 guppies in a 3 gallon, so i think five neons sound about right for a 5 gallon :)
