Unless they turn out to be a pair, then I doubt these two will get along together in a 55 gallon when they are full-grown. Usually adult male Texas are territorial (mine is psychotic), and some male JDs can be pretty aggressive too.
Seeing as they're so small, they'll probably do ok together for a time, but you may run into issues as they mature. Keep us updated! Very pretty fish...
