The oscars are gone, and now the GT's have a 150 gallon to share with a synodontis and and a nine tiger barbs. What do you guys think should i add a couple EBJD's? Or should just not add anymore fish. Heres some pics.


Also can anyone tell me if i have a male and female GT?

Nice tank! I recently added two c. wendtii to my tank also, it's a great low-light plant.

Personally, i would add EBJD, but you need to find one large enough if your gt's are aggressive.

I have that combo working in my tank right now, and my white saum is 4 times the size of the EBJD's, but for some reason he is passive.

fwiw, when I had an 8"EBJD and 8" GT in my 180g few years back, the GT killed the EBJD.
 
The dark brown/green one with a lot of leaves in the 3rd and 4th pics, it's Cryptocoryne wendtii.

I dont' think that is "for some reason". Quite often big cichlids don't mind small ones, but hate other cichlids that are just as big as them.
About the EBJD, yes I think it should work.
 
Thanks for the input guys. I will defenitly post updates often. Also the only way I can get EBJD's is online, I live in the desert with what seems to be people from the neolithic period. Does anyone know about cichlid station or a better online store? And if there is GT fry what do I do with them?
