The Salvini & Festae, to go with the GT. and would a Frontosa work? or is there anything else that kind of looks like one that would work. He likes the blue and black stripes.

Frontosa are an African cichlid and I would say try and steer clear. It has been done but I would try and avoid it, Africans and Americans need different water chemistry.
That is what I needed to know. Would a convict be able to hold his own with one of each of the others?
A pair of convicts could work if you got them big enough, they are tough little things. Actually Im positive yo could keep a convict or two, just be careful because if you get a pair you will have more fry than you know what to do with, they are animals!
Thank you for all of your help. It looks like, if we can find them, 1- GT (already have 4"), 1- Salvini, 1- Festae, and 1-2 Convicts. Would you say the 125 is full?
maybe but not necessarily; sals, gts and cons don't get very big. of course there's always some exceptions but you could always go with a school of dithers..
<edit>i take that back, gts can get around a foot or so but i've never seen a sal or con over six-seven inches. you could try an escondido maybe</edit>

Males sal's can get to 8-10", have seen the measuring tape pic on a 10" SL sal before, and lots of 8" males.
