I have a 8" jardini that's already in my tank, i want to buy a Silver the same size as my Jar and i have the option to buy a 12" BGK. My question is will the BGK even have a chance in there??? Oh yea i have a 100 gallon tank and yes i'll be upgrading in the near future, probably 180 or 220.
 
I've seen a few tanks with the 2 aro combo's and they were fine. I know i can't do 2 Jar's . I'm just more worried about the BGK.
 
the jar would turn into a suicidal maniac and kill or make everything hide in corner. in the end it would probably need a tank to its self.
 
That's what i thought, but people tell me they'll be fine together. (silver and jar)
 
Jars are monsters......I wouldn't recommend it, you could try it just have a spare tank on hand........that's how my basement turned into a small pet store, after trying to put 8 jardini's together.... By the way I had my 17 in silver aro with my 6 in jar, worked fine till my Silver swallowed him:( :( :(
 
BGK grows really slow compared to Aros. It just might end up as a small meal to one of them.
 
Don't believe everything you hear about jars.

I see 2 jars, 1 silver, 1 black. They are all living in harmony. If I had more jars I'd put more in there.

Nothing is impossible. I've even seen setups with piranha mixed in with other fish.
 
Yea i know !! I was more worried about that BGK.
