if u end up with a pair of convicts and they breed, then u are in for some trouble with the other fish. the convicts will mostly likely terrorize them. i would not reccomend putting convicts in a tank of fish that cannot defend themselves. hope this helps

I would not put a convict, even one, in with longfin danios. unless you don't mind the danios being shredded, that is.
they lay eggs, not livebearers.
