Your JD if he is male will turn a BLACK with blue dots and have very pointed dorsal and anal fins.... If your JDs are a pair (m/f) when they get big enough to mate and claim their own territory NOTHING will be able to live with em... except something that will kill them like a pair of red devils...

I wouldn't recommend Pairs of different species...because if you get a male /female bonded pair trying to mate then all hell is going to break loose. Even with a pair of convicts ,who may be small, but will fight with fierceness you won't believe for thier size. If you want different types of cichlids ,I would probably get one of each.
