A thought occured to me while doing some research on why my Jack Dempsey's aren't breeding. They live together and have ever since I got them. Should I remove the female for a week or so and introduce her to the male again? Or would I just mess everything up?

I'd say its worth a try! What have you got to lose!? Maybe they're just too use to each other. At least it could stir things up a bit!

No but I do have an 3-4" Convict but if I were to do this I do not want the Covict to get killed. He was my first convict and he is special to me. I don't really want to see him get hurt either but I guess I could stand to lose one covict as I have thousands.
Well don't put one that you care about in there. You have thousands of convicts??

Yes and I am not exaggerating about it. I would take a picture but camera broke and don't get a new one until my birthday in a few months.
Would I be able to put the two/pair into a 75 with a male midas cichlid and everything be okay. The midas is fairly aggressive and the JD's are not but a buddy of mine said since they are/were a pair they would be able to stand up to him. Is that true?
I personally don't think that would be a good idea. How big is your Midas?

8" without the tail 11" if you count his tail. The male JD is about the same size but the female is only about 6"
Send me ur midas and then put them in 
i dont know if this has been said but have u tried conditioning. it seems like ur close but they just dont feel right. whats ur water temp at? how many water changes and how much? what are u feeding? i know how you feel when a pair shows every possible sign of breeding and they get so far only to just stall. it sucks but patience patience patience. im at 5 breeding project right now and im going insane too.
