My m8 is really cocky about his cichlids and he keep convicts with malawi and other african cichlids. His convicts are being aggressive to his african cichlids and he is fed up. I said its because they are american cichlids and he said loads of people keep convicts with african cichlids.

Am i right or is he?

He was going to out his convitcs in his external filter because of aggression.
 
ask him to do a bit of basic research on fish keeping, thats not meant to be patronising, it will just help him enjoy his hobby a bit more and also help him not waste his money or time.

apart from everything else, Convicts and Malawi often have different dietary requirements, i dont really buy into the different water requirements that sometimes gets spouted, as Convicts can thrive in pH of 7.5 to 8.0

I would not mix them, its desperate fish keeping, hope he gets a plan sorted and things settle down for him
