well i was thinking about pairs, but the problem i thought would be is
if i got 2 male, wouldn't they always be constantly fighting? if i got
2 females it woudl probably be ok and if i got a male and female
that'd be fine.

Depending on the size your gonna set up, I'd start with 2 convicts(the
3rd will cause problems) 2 Oscars, do like one albino and one red tiger,
2 JD's, and 2 texas. Of coarse you'll need a scavenger of some
type,(Pleco, Channel Cat). Try to get pairs on the cichlids, they'll be
happier that way.
