I have a 180 with 12 geos of 4 different spcies they mix ver well provided taht they are braziliensis or steindacneri.

In a tank of that size id go for a group of 6-8.

agreed, but I will add that if the tank is anything bigger than 6 feet I would be ok mixing steinies with most geos other than Satanoperca (if you consider them as geos)

I would go with 6 altogether. I have 5 Altrifons in a 90. Mine are near 9 inches and I have seen them 12 inches before. Stay away from brasiliensis as they are more agressive. I would stay with all the surinimensis type. Balzani are cool but could also become aggressive. Your red sev should be fine with them. I keep a school of Aurilus barbs with mine for constant movement. Also have a large L-114 cactus pleco in there. They are great fish.

Balzini need wintering really.
