Has anyone every housed these two together successfully? I have two large silvers and would really like a Jar, and I know "all fish are different, with different personalities..." But honestly do you guys think it would work out?
i've done it with sucess...they fin nip every now and then, but no major damage is ever done. however, my jardi is pretty mellow compared to most, so i guess i'm lucky there. unless your silvers are much bigger then the jardi, i'd be worried about aggro from the jardi.
be creative, have a outside tank that u can remove one/put it back a week later type trials....... i did it after like 2 weeks was able to have two silvers and one jardini together.
The Jar would probably be at least 14", I don't have a specific Jar in mind. I just would like to have another type of aro in my tank... and I'm starting my research. I appreciate all the answers.

Right now, I am keeping a tank with a silver aro, 3 arapaimas, jardini and delhezi. No aggression so far from anybody (initially, jar's fins and tail were a little torn but ok now). Not counting delhezi, jar is the smallest in the tank but it seems to be catching up.
In your case, be sure neither fish fits into each other maws. Good luck
