I've had them with Frontosa and lelupi before. Lovely little fish that I haven't seen in awhile. They used to be pretty common. I love them.
Don't get more, If you have a pair, this is plenty. They are pretty aggressive to conspecifics, so a pair is good. They are found near fronts in the wild and mimic them to access new food sources. So, as long as you have a large enough tank, you should be good.
I keep 6 trets in a 240 gallon with fronts, compressiceps, leulupis, sexfasciatus and cylindricus. The only sparring that goes on is between the cylindricus and believe or not the leulupis occasionaly chasing the fronts. In this size tank the trets are model citizens.
