no . . . as noted, you are already over-stocked; 2 GTs or 2 JDs could work in a 65G, although I think it's a bit small . . . the 90G would be great for either pair, but I don't think it's big enough for both, especially if you have mating pairs

I don't see a scenario where you would (or should) add another JD in either a 65G or 90G tank . . .

Bummer.... I am new to the hobby and I wasnt aware how much tank for 7 fish was needed.... As of now I guess I am lucky they are pretty laid back and not hostile to one another.(I watch the egg situation very close and remove immediatly)....I was told the rule of thumb was 1 gal to 1 inch..............Anyone near cincy know of a good home for some free GT?
