Dude, you bumped it like 3 times in a minute, chillax bro

If it's the yellow heads I'm thinking of, Parachromis, then you're going to be overstocked. 1 might be OK, with the cons, at least for awhile.

yeah im talking about P. Loisellei. and can i keep the pair in their . i can take the convicts out and put 1 pair in 20 gallon tank. and leave the small pair with yellow head?

You could try it but eventually those loisellei are going to outgrow your tank. It should work for awhile though I suppose, unless they decide they hate each other and somebody wants to commit murder.
