The only thing I can add other than what Hukit has stated is that you might want a female Convict for the extra colour.

There's a chance the female convict and male fire mouth would try to spawn, stick to all males. Add tetra if you feel you need more color.
 
I hate convicts with a passion now that i have them.

Convicts are pretty cool man. Don't hate! They are a pretty good starter cichlid especially for those trying to get the hang of breeding. Lots of personality in a small package.

You can say that again. But since i have started getting the more expensive cooler cichlids the male con is being a [insert word of choice]. So im either setting my 55 up for them or selling them/giving them away.

Set up the 55 and you'll have a pretty steady source of treats for those festae.

Ya, thats prob what im going to do tomorrow haha. But i cant get these cons to breed!!! There in a 150g with two water changes a week and perfect water conditions!! And they wont breed! Sorry to detail Ops thread
 
I didnt even know that!

Do theu breed that much?

You can stick a male and a female in a bucket of urine and in a few hours there will be a bucket full of pee soaked convicts in there. Maybe that's a little extreme but yes, the breed like nobody's business!
