They breed in the same manner as convicts but are a little less aggressive.

If you have a big enough tank with enough hiding places, pH of around 7, you can keep virtually any fish together as long as all the fish are around the same size and these two groups of fish are avioded:
Serrasalmus
Tetradon
(figure eights and dwarfs are the
exception).

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families:
Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.

Just a little update on my parrot projects. Got a pair of pink parrots spawning together, the first batch is now swimming for 5 days, eating baby brine. Small batches of eggs, most hatched, the parrents are only 2" right now, still growing.
