Baenschi trio,Cyanotilapia Afra Cobwe(4), copadichromis trewavase, protomelas sp. tangerine tiger(breeding pair)

This will give the female a chance, beause the male will want to breed/fight her off as soon as shes in the tank. Id also beaware of the others in the tank, because convicts can very wickedly aggressive when breeding.
