Q: It's best to start with 6 convicts, in order to allow the pairing to occur naturally. You can tell if a convict is female by the bright yellow-orange coloring on their belly and spots on their dorsal fin. The color patches become more pronounced just before egg-laying. Males don't have the same bright coloring, but are larger, and have a steeper forehead and longer, more pointed fins than the female. Due to their aggressive temperament it is not recommended that you keep convict cichlids in the same tank with any other breed of fish. There are several color variants to consider when choosing your fish. The regular black and white convict cichlids are the easiest to breed, but an albino variant known as the ivory cichlid and a pink variant are beautiful options as well. The female convict will take the initiative in the mating cycle. After choosing a dark hiding place, the female courts the male, then lays her eggs on the flat rocks or on the side of a flower pot. Once laid, the eggs will be carefully guarded by their parents. This is when convicts display their most aggressive behavior. The eggs, which average around 100 -200 per brood, will hatch after about 3 days. It will take another few days before the fry start swimming around the tank under the protection of their parents. The parent fish will try to keep the fry in place for 10 to 14 days, after which time they may be ready to breed again. At this time, you may want to consider moving the fry to their own nursery tank, as the parents will sometimes eat the first batch of fry to make room for the new eggs.
A: Select your breeding fish. Let nature take its course. Watch and wait for the eggs to hatch.

Q: When your guinea pig is healthy, his breathing will be quiet and easy. However, respiratory problems can make it hard for him to breathe. Your guinea pig may start wheezing. In addition, you may hear clicking or rattling noises when he breathes. A respiratory problem can cause your guinea pig's eyes and nose to produce discharge. If the discharge is green or yellow, your guinea pig could have a bacterial respiratory infection. A respiratory infection could also cause your guinea pig's conjunctiva, the inner part of your guinea pig's eyelids, to become red. Allergies, another type of respiratory problem, can make your guinea pig's nose red and sore from a lot of itching and scratching. A respiratory problem can make your guinea pig feel pretty sick and not in the mood to eat. He may eat less, or not at all. When you feed him, observe how much he eats. With a reduced appetite, your guinea pig will lose weight. A lack of vitamin C is one possible cause of respiratory problems in guinea pigs. If your guinea pig is not eating much because he feels sick, he may not be getting enough vitamin C, which could make him feel even worse. Although your guinea pig may have obvious symptoms of a respiratory problem, your vet will need to determine the exact cause of the illness and how serious it is. To do this, they will perform a physical exam that will include listening to your guinea pig's lungs. Your vet will also take samples (e.g., nasal swab, discharge from the eyes or nose) to identify the specific bacteria causing the respiratory infection. Chest x-rays can also help your vet diagnose your guinea pig's respiratory problem. Chest x-rays will show whether your guinea pig has pneumonia. Dental disease can cause respiratory problems in guinea pig because the roots of the cheek teeth (premolars and molars) are so close to the nasal passages. If your guinea pig has dental disease, skull x-rays will help your vet see the extent of the disease.
A: Determine if your guinea pig has trouble breathing. Look at your guinea pig's eyes and nose. Take note of your guinea pig's appetite. Have your vet diagnose your guinea pig.

Q: The contract should contain a provision that explains how and where the sale of the property will be finalized. This information should include the time period within which the closing of the sale should occur. A common provision is for the sale to close within 60 days of the signing of the contract. Closings often occur at title company offices, but also may occur at an attorney's office or a bank. Another contract provision should set forth the payment of necessary costs of closing, which are allocated as agreed between the parties. One potential cost is for deed preparation and recording. A deed is the document that formally transfers ownership of the property from seller to buyer. In most states, a deed must be recorded with a certain local government office in order to be put into effect. The contract should also address the payment of closing costs, which can be paid by one party or both parties. There also should be a provision that addresses the payment for a title insurance policy. Title insurance ensures that the property is being transferred free of any liens, encumbrances, or claims to ownership by third parties. A typical FSBO contract provision that addresses closing costs is as follows: "Seller shall pay at closing all costs related to the release of any mortgage on the property, delinquent real estate taxes, and outstanding mechanic's liens." Another way to address different types of closing costs is as follows: "Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of any title insurance policy and survey performed of the property. Buyer also shall bear the costs of preparing and recording the deed and any mortgage secured by the property that is the subject of this agreement." While possession of the property does occur at closing in some cases, many contracts provide that possession of the property occurs at a later date following closing. For instance, a contract might provide for the buyer to take possession of the property 30 days after closing.
A:
Provide detailed closing information. Allocate closing costs. State the date of possession.
