Took this the other day, my 20" Jardini in my 180.

Plenty of fish he could go psycho on.

don't mean to de-rail.
 
Basically putting a sub adult jardini with any other fish is risky, with a little research it is easy to find when the majority of jardini become killers. There are quite a few members who are successfully keeping jardini in community set ups. This is not a rarity, though these are generally mature specimens. What sucks is you get someone who got a mature jardini, had it for a couple months and is running around posting in every thread he can find on the matter. Telling everyone how it'll work, problem is he has no experience in the matter when it comes to actually raising a jardini. This equals bad advice.

:duh: WTF does your 20" have to do with the OPs 8"?
 
People like to label jardini as "killer." Jardini is just an arowana like any other arowana. Unfortunately, they get branded by incompetent individual, who can't accept his mistake, rather blame it on the fish

To OP, the only problem with keeping an 8" Jardini with an 8" ray is that there's a slight chance the Jardini becomes ray food. Also, there's a chance the Jardini goes after the tatf. That silverish darting little fish can be quite annoying, oh and the tatf can also become ray food

How do you propose people prevent a fish from being a fish? Jardinis are labelled as killers because that's exactly what they can be. Enlighten me please, fish master

Talk to your fish If it doesn't listen, ground it. If it still doesn't listen and continues to attack other tank mates, then kick it out of your house or put it to the ground.
 
Not sure I follow why you posted this. Just cause the african aro (is that what that is?) is beating up on your jar doesn't mean it wouldn't do the same to other fish if given the opportunity.

You're basically saying like, "oh Doctor Doom isn't a threat to the earth, because watch, Galactus whoops his butt."
Fish being fish. Is that too hard to understand? Simplify thing, instead of over think thing.
