FREAQ Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Yes they will I have seen it happen, but if you put in a small pot on its side they will use that and lay eggs inside it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarfaze Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 yeah it already has just a pot and filter thanks for the reply mate deeply appreciate it will having no gravel slow the breeding process? i already have a pot in the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViS Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 As long as you have water and a male / female pair, they will breed I've read stories of a pair breeding in a 10 litre bucket while their tank was being cleaned. I found when I kept them that they liked to breed under a rock that was only about an inch off the ground, but they will breed pretty much anywhere they can attach eggs.

yellow Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 i think convicts would breed in a bucket full of petrol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OscarTerror Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 mine dig a pit in a cave all the way to the glass so having no substrate wouldn't be a problem provided they have shelter and it should provide better water quality as its a breeze to keep clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoges Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I had a pair of convicts breed in a bag while being transported to newcastle. Fair enof they had two hrs, but seriously in a bag??? I don't imagine you would have a trouble in the world if there is no substrate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burek Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 Convicts will breed in a bare tank. No reason they woudint. Even if you had gravel or other substrate, it will be the same to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
