Menifee, socal
My lfs has a nice looking green terror. My question is would it be possible to have one in my 300 with my current stock? I dont want to get it if it is not suitable.

My stock is:
1x Red Severum
1X Bala shark
1x Red tail shark
1x Albino rainbow shark
3x Electric blue jack demseys
1x Paratilapia Polleni
1x Royal clown knife
3x Pictus catfish
2x Clown Loaches
1x Common Pleco
And a few others. There is no real aggression in the tank.

So they are not to agressive? You have a STI? Trade for the 300 lol?

I got the EBJD's from a forum member beautifull fish. A lfs near me wanted $60 for a 1 inch one. I paid $10 each they are 3" but not prefect they have a very minor gill deformity but its not noticable unless pointed out.
 
yeah GT should be fine though i would only get it if it is smaller or same size as your other cichlids, when i had mine they were rulers of the tank but in a mild way, the only time they fought was in self defense, some GTs out there are apparently killers but for the most part they are pretty laid back
 
Ok thanks, its only about 4" so my severum is bigger (7-8"). The EBJD and the Polleni are a bit smaller.

Is one GT fine on its own?
 
Ok I got one about 9 inches, with a 24" silver aro, a geo, delhezi bichir and a green phantom pleco all for $100 with a ton of food and a 250w jager heater

All the fish except the severum, bala shark and the royal knife have been moved into a different tank. It just sits on the bottom of the tank, the previous owner had only been feeding them every four days, now only the geo is eating.

I will try and get a picture if anyone would like to see.
