Curving off your Jardini's aggression would depend on several factors. I only speak from my experience but hope it'll be helpful. My 14" jardini is living with a temensis, silver arowana, and two stingrays. It also tolerates a 13" black arowana.
1. Tank space. Bigger the better.
When I put my Jardini into the 135g, it would go after its tankmates. Once it assumes superiority, it'll relentlessly go after other fish. It does best in the 210g. It doesn't bother any other fish.
2. Don't let it become dominent.
Always mix it with at least one large or aggressive predator that it can't domineer over. I do it with a 20"+ Silver and have tamed the jar with a nice Mr. Midas.
3. Frequent disciplining.
When the jar reached about 11", it began attacking the bigger silver which was about 18" back then. Whenever beating episodes occurred, I removed it to a spare tank. I repeated this process until it stopped beating its bigger tankmate. Stragely, it doesn't attack any other fish anymore, when it is in my 210g.

i think i read somewhere on this site of a guy who was talking to his neighbour abt how he controls the aggression in his fish e.g. how he stops them from fighting. and the neighbour said that when ever his two aros were having a go at each other he'd drop a small red floating ball in. And as soon as he dropped the ball into the tank they would stop fighting and immediately turn their attention to the ball...
I DID IT!!!! i put it back into my 100 after 4 days of keepin it in my discus tank and a lil aquascaping and now its not attacking anymore fishes. but of course now all the other fishes are attacking it hahaha.
