Hello All,

i have a quick question. i also have a 55gal. set up. as of now i have 2 black convicts. (breeding Pair) and 2 african jewels (breeding pair). they dont bother each other at all they both have fry every so often an sometimes eat each others. they stay on seperate sides of the tank. only time they come near each other is for food. i was wondering if i could add a tank-mate. such as a firemouth.

i have it now in thier an it seems to be fine. it swims next to the side with the male con. but jus want some opinions. bcuz this is the first time i owned this type of fish. i didnt research it like i should've but i loved it wen i saw it. an nothing was changing my mind

sizes. convicts. - 3'. jewels. 2.5'.

firemouth 1.5'
