I have a 6.5-7" Buttikoferi in with a 10" Jag and a 10-11" Midas and everything is fine. There is some gill flaring once in awhile and chasing ocassionally but no damage to any of the fish. I have them in a 180 gallon with an 8" Vieja Zonatus, a 6" Paratilapia Polleni and a 7" Vieja Maculicauda. They all get along pretty well believe or not.
i thinking of getting smallish one in my 130 gallon tank which has a 7" midas and biggish pai of jags so should be ok
do not add a single fish I usually add 2 to an already established tank it lessens the chance of it being singled out & killed. If you are going to add new fish rearrange the decorations then add the new fish before the old ones reestablish territory. Otherwise they will be fine together other then the expected aggression of all above species.
