I recently bought a 20G Long tank and was wondering if a pair of Convicts will be okay for this. If so, will I also ba able to put a bristlenosed pleco in there too?
 
The Bristlenose might be okay in the tank until the cons start to spawn. If you do add the plec be sure to provide him with plenty of hiding places that the cons can't get into.

I have heard of spawning convicts terrorizing an entire 55 gallon tank, so I don't think I would try the pleco in there, JMO. Maybe if the tank were larger it would be ok, but 20 gallons is really barely enough room for the cons- they are extremely active fish that swim constantly, and can be very aggressive to other fish as well as each other. :?
