the big convicts are eating the babies you better get the babies out before they are all eating. i know this from my friend who had like 40 convicts

There is a very good chance it was him that ate all of them.
What else is in the tank exactly?

Its a blessing in disguise. Let the Jack have al it can eat.

if you want to save some babies, throw them into their own tank. your jack is destined to do what jacks do.

agreed. :)

You will have plenty more soon enough!
Get another tank set up if you want to raise the fry.You will then need another tank to seperate the fry as they get older so you don't end up with more than you can handle all at once.Talk to local fish stores and see if they will buy any off of you.

What where you planning on doing with them all?
Like the above have said,get another tank for them,and you will soon have more if you want to keep them.

Not very often you can keep parents with fry in a tank with other cichlids. Babies get eaten and parents or other cichlids end up dead. Convicts alone would raise these babies great or a breeding tank is needed.

Find a separate tank for them.
