I have a standard 75 gallon with current stock:
3 x Convicts ( 2-5 in )
4 x Red Devils ( 1-4 in )
2 x Green Terrors (1-3 in )
2 x Jaguars ( 2-3 in )
2 x Tinfoil Barbs ( 1 in )
1 x Common Pleco ( 4 in )

I got rid of 2 GT's ( 3 in ), 2 Oscars ( 4 in ), 2 Convicts ( 1-3 in ).

I can give away 2 devils, 2 convicts and maybe green terrors.

:iagree: if you want either a jag or RD then you're pretty much looking at just one of either one of them...not 1 of each. If you want to go with GT and Con then you could do more than one fish.

Im not gonna keep the convicts, tinfoils and pleco.
So which pair can i keep from RD's, Jaguars and GT's in the 75 gallon?
And for other tank i dont think ima buy new tank maybe a indoor pond for jaguars and red devils. What are the dimensions i have to look for pond?
And they are all male and females for all of 'em.
 
I don't believe any of those large cichlids should be paired in a 75gal. GTs grow slow so you may be able to pull it off for a little while. But you definitely need a much larger tank for long term care. I can't speak on the pond size. I only deal with tanks at the moment.

x2 . . . what he said . . .
 
You have some monsters in there. You need to upgrade soon. By the 7 to 8 months those devils are going to be pretty big and also the jaguars. 150g or 180

How bout pair of Sajicas, pair of Blue Acaras, pair of Green Terrors and pair of Convicts?
Are you asking if each suggested pair would work alone or are you asking if all four pairs can live together in your 75?
