im thinking some festae would be possible. for catfish im open to opinion but want to make sure they wont be picked on?

What i've learned in the marine/freshwater world of fish keeping. Keeping agressive predetor fish it's always going to be a game of constant guessing. I could tell you countless stories of fish compatible with certain fish...then they get picked on. Maybe you can try a red devil? Don't know how nasty these guys are...never owned them. For catfish, um gonna look some up.

Interesting vid of a jaguare with some tankmates, don't know the name's of the other jags except for the devil (I think)..and a parrot

i believe Red Devils would work.. I will have some dither to keep my fish busy

I would put Midas instead of RD. They get bigger

 

[Gizmo7415]

Good idea.. Believe flowerhorn would work? or maybe a friedrichsthalli?

May I ask you guys, what is a "dither" is it a fish? Or is it any type of agile fish?

 

[Gruntking]

Thing is Jaguars get pretty big and are usually very agressive cichllids. If you want to put something that gets as big as him and equally agressive i think Midas would be a better choice

Basically schooling fish, such as silver dollars or tinfoil barbs

you dont think freddy, midas and jagaur could be housed in same tank (220 g)?
dithers are schooling fish that are active swimmers.
