Convicts Cichlids

[DanDanUK]

Can anyone please tell me if it would be a wise move for me to add 2 Convicts in with the fish that i have?

I know that convicts can be agressive towards any smaller fish that it can catch but as my fish can grow a lot bigger i was just wondering if the convicts would be safe the convicts are around 6" so there almost fully grown.

List of my fish are :

1x Silver Arowana 7/8"
1x Fire eel 13/14"
1x orange spot pleco 6"
1x Marble Goby 6/7"

You definitely have a large enough tank for them. As long as you give the convicts something for them to claim as theirs,they shouldn't bother anyone.

I dont think you will have a problem with this either. I have a tank set up right now with almost this same fish in it as you mentioned. I have never had a problem.

they'll be fine as long as you give them a cave or something so that the have a place to chill

go a head and add them, seem ok to me.

My convicts were only territorial to their own kind, not aggressive to anybody else. But smaller fish, if not fast enough to be considered dither make a tasty snack.

I don't see a problem with that, I just added two to my tank and less than a week later they layed eggs
