Has your convict stressed your ebjd to death yet? Bad combo imo. Well once your ebjd dies you could keep the con in there for life. My sens grew like weeds till they hit 6", now they're growing average. Your fine for 2-3 months.

Nope. I watch the tank very closely, and right now they get along pretty well and the Jack seems to be more dominant over the convict. If I see the con harrasing the JD, I'm gonna move him to a different tank.
Just play it by ear. Watch your nitrates and nitrites. Do water changes. If you do this you'll know when it's time. Keep a close eye on that convict. I had a trio of male convicts that picked on my 18" pacu. I know longer have the convict's. Lol.
lol well I think I'll give 'em about 3 months then put 'em in the 75, unless they grow abnormally fast.
And female cons are the less aggresive of the two, correct?

Depends on the individual. I've had a female that was a *itch. She actually killed her male, and wouldn't live with anything.
Ok... I don't want to make a new thread for this so I'll post here.
What should I stock the 75 with?
The EBJD's staying, but the con can live in the 20 if you guys think that's a good idea. I'd like some fish in the tank other then cichlids, including a bottom dweller and maybe some fish that school. I don't have the senegal yet, btw, I thought my friend was giving it to me but he decided to keep it, so I could get one of those, or something else.
