Will they get along? I've got those hong kong plecos in the 20G...Oscar is about to get himself some snacks so I can start doing convicts instead...anyway, they are very docile and keep to themselves, but I worry the convicts won't like them...

I've got a common plec in one tank that's just downright nasty...he goes after Oscar and Jack all the time!

I had to look up hong kong pleco lol. Its a hillstream loach aparently.

Eh, going to be hit or miss. They are lacking the armor a pleco normally has (being a loach) so they won't hold up as well. In a 20gal i'm not sure i would just because the convicts will take over the tank but i can't really say because these loaches and similar fish like otos and small plecos can hide pretty well.
