if you must (I wouldn't with breeding convicts) but make sure there are plenty of hiding places...

They get very aggressive during breeding and I personally wouldn't want anything else around them that I didn't want to keep around very long...

yea they get pretty pissy when breeding. How big is your tank? I have seen them in large long tanks that seem to do okay-ish with other fish, they just protected the crap out of one side of the tank.
