Thorichtys meeki togather with convicts?

[proteque]

We (my "wife" and I) have just setup (its done cycling and fish introdused) a central american tank. For now there is only Convicts there. Two males and two females. They work very well togather even during mating.

Now my wife has set her eyes on some Thorichtys meeki. Would it be okay to introduse this to a tank with convicts. They both are from Central america but I am not sure if they are from the same plac.... The tank is 160l and has a lot of hidingplaces.

If the convicts are breeding and established. It's very tough to introduce new fish. As soon as they are in the water the cons will try to chase them out of their territory and since the fish are new, they don't know where they should NOT go. As a result they get beaten up pretty badly.

as stated already if the cons are already established in the tank it will be difficult to add the fire mouths to the tank. firemouths are a bit timid when it comes to fighting they dont really stand their ground they tend to flare at the opponits raither than jaw lock with them to stand their ground, I am afriaid that they will be on the short end of the stick when it comes to that fight.
