i dont think its possible to cross severums, i know you can cross a firemouth and a convict, and a convict with a parrot, ive even heard a firemouth cross with a parrot but never heard of a severum cross

I tried for a long time myself, and I agree I don't think you can do it.

it might be possible if they pair up but thats the hard part

I've heard quite a few claims of severum crossess on on the internenet. I'll beleive it when I see it; either video footage or a picture of a pair with offspring. But I have yet to see any evidence. Generally, I think, the source of these claims are either an aquarist or LFS speculating on what genes they think their fish contains. Or even someone confusing a somewhat oddly shaped large male 'pink' con for a golden severum.

It's conceivable that a severum MIGHT be able to be crossed with a CA cichlid as it MAY very well be closely related enough. The problem is the fish is just not very inclined to pair up and cross with a different species (other then possibly another Heros species).
