convict tankmates in a 55g

A single Jack Dempsey? Or a firemouth? Salvini?

I had a juvie green terror with cons for a while, along with a plec, and a school of red hook silver dollars. They all got along fine.

I got two cons(white and black)....I plan on adding one firemouth and a Jewel cichlid but what else could I add?

 

[riley101]

a texas cichlid or a gt or a jack dempsey

You can add a syno cat or some bristle nose plecs or some dithers its really up to you I think your set on cichlids though I would personally get a bumble bee cat.

55 gallons is really small. maybe you should just get a pair of zebra danios. no more than that.

angryinsect-Wow-5 cons, 3 JD, and a GT is way too much for a 55 hope you plan to upgrade.

I have a 90g waiting for them

wow mumtron that was really interesting, thanks for that input. god your such a nice person, thanks for those heartful messages and all the names you have been calling me.thank you. and BTW this tank is for my sons room and I been trying to get a nice setup of cichlids for quite sometime but its kinda hard when you got a 4 yr old wanting this and that..He likes convicts and Green Terrors and big Catfishes.... just trying to see what works! thanks all of you!

Still to small especially if the cons and JDs breed.
