I have 8 SA aro's, bnetween blacks and silvers, all above 1 foot with no problem whatsoever. just put them in at the same time, expect some discussion, but it will go well. Forget about joining the Jardini, in any case ( allthough others hane managed to, ie, The Trust, for instance )

well... the thing is we can't stop the occasional bumps and snips... every dog has it's day juz like we humans haf our occasional mood swings where we'd juz snap at some1... wad u can do is juz keep an eye on the aggression level and make sure it isn't over-kill... otherwise u needa consider a change of environment on either of uR fishes... cheers mate...

You do realize that eventually you are going to need a tank in the 500plus gallon range with demesions of about 8-10 feet long and 3-4 feet wide.

Any combination that includes a jardini has only about a 15-20% chance of working. Your 210 gallon is not much bigger then my 180 gallon, I currently have two 21-24" silver aros in that tank, trust me that is that max. There is no room to have any more aros then that in that size tank.

True!

Most are able to do it by keeping in groups, which requires a very large tank or small lake. I have two silvers that coexist together, I am able to do this only because I am lucky. There is no "do's and don'ts" for keeping pairs. Odds are that pairs will not work.
