55g tank so I can't house anything too big.
Thinking about convicts mixed with something else(not too expensive+easy to keep?)
Someone recommended krebensis(sp?) but they sound like they're pretty hard to find at a store :D
 
no not jack dempsey they get 16". i think firemouths would work
 
i have had my jack demsey in a 55gal for over 2 years now and she is fine and with convicts!:)
 
Le patron stop saying Jacks get up to 16". It is just not true. You really dont know what you are talking about. I think a JD, severum larger than the cons, or sajicas.
 
Guess I'll try out severum, firemouth and JD(most likely JD, only one Petco sells i think unless a LFS has some of the others) :D

EDIT::Can I mix some kind pleco with them? Ty :D

you need to stop telling me what i saw, you TROLL. i saw the fish and i will do my best to fix mediaplayer so i can upload the video and prove you wrong. with proper care and housing, jack dempseys can reach 16" without a problem. it doesnt happen over a period of 1 to 3 years but it happens. i saw it with my own eyes so stop telling me what i did or did not see
