I was just wondering if 2 Purple sriped Gudgeons would be ok in a 90gal with 4 convicts the convicts are around 2inch and Gudgeons are 4 and 5 inches
 
nope, 'fraid not, some serious issues would arrise.
 
Really well i guess there is only one way to find out :D the convicts are only worth $2 each so i am hopen if it swings either way the convicts loose but yeah i think i am ganna try it anyways cause it is a 90 gal and yeah i think that it might work
 
ohh well if she had of said the Gudgeons where in trouble then i would have listened so i wont do it then cause they are cool as fish and it would be crap if they died so anyways thanks
 
I think they'll do just fine. I kept 2 purple striped gudgeons in my 75 with several other different fish, including two full-sized male cons, a couple of Jack Dempsey's and some other misc. fish(including my frontosas). No one bothers the gudgeons at all. They usually hang out in the plants all day and everyone comes out to eat together. In fact, I'm growing out two more gudgeons for this tank because I lost one of my big guys. :( So, eventually, there will be 3 in there.
If the cons start to breed, they might get a little nasty, but you can watch out for that.
