Frontosa, Firemouth, Convicts????

Frontosa will grow too large for that tank and require much different water parameters than the other two. I'd swap him out for something else.
One step further.

so he is in the group that thinks "it's surviving so it's ok". that attitude wont get anyone far on this forum. your friend sounds like a really intelligent guy btw. i hope you have more sense than your friend and take on board the good advice that will be given.
not only is 60g too small for a frontosa the con is likely to be far more aggressive than it. frontosas can be gentle giants and easily bullied generally. even a firemouth will likely bully a young frontosa.
damn it!!!!!!!! so GT it is then huh? Would a green terror do well with a pair of firemouths and cons (in the 60 gal)
The GT might be OK, but you might run into problems regardless of stocking when having a pair of fish involved. Breeding pairs generally get really agressive.
