Fish Tank 90gal

Can a convict breeding pair live in a 20gal tank?

I really really really want to breed convicts. I also want an oscar. I guess I cant have both in my 90gal tank so I was thinking of selling off the fish in my 20 gal and using that for the convicts. Can a convict breeding pair live in a 20gal tank or is that to small?

Also is it even wise to have a convict breeding pair in a small tank? I herd that when they have fry the male will sometimes start attacking the female as soon as he figures out that theirs no other threats in the tank? (ie other fish)

Is that true?

Convicts make excellent parents since both male and female play active roles in caring for their fry. They should be put alone in the 20 gallon tank unless you want them to kill off their other tankmates. Only thing is once they start breeding they don’t stop! Mine breed every other month.

They lay eggs and guard them continuously well until they are free swimming and large enough to venture out on their own.
