You have room, but I wouldnt add anything else

I would make it only one convict, then you might be ok, with two, if they pair up, the rest of the fish will be in trouble.

Don't you think that they cray fish will do enough clean up by him self?

I am absolutely no expert but I've heard that rainbows are very peaceful fish that shouldn't be put with more aggresive things like cichlids. Don't shoot me if i'm wrong i'm just passing on what i've heard

They can be kept with cichlids. They are a very common dither fish actually. They should be kept with more placid cichlids such as severums. I wouldn't house them with something like a convict.

ye ive been told on here that could be used as dithers but that giant danios would be best suited but they look so boring. any ideas of what dithers i could have not just giant danios
