Jardini Tankmates

Just my experience, but my big 22" is much more aggressive with my tank understocked, less to keep him busy I guess.
Edit: I wouldn't try that in a 75 though. That's not even big enough for the jar.

75 gallons is waaaaaaay too small for a jardini. I think you should get a bigger tank or rehome it.
I remembered Andrink that you've said in your thread long ago is that a jardini can be housed for life in a 180g, what happened? Why did your jardini end up in a 75g? what happened with your signature?
And just like pole said, you're pushing it.

It seems you don't understand what I'm saying, this guy demanded a thread to be stickied because "he knows a lot about fish", and having his signature on every post clearly can be read anytime, by him or anyone, he has seems to be contradicting himself with his knowledge and what is happening, I found myself baffled with what's happening.. If I remember it correctly, he also losed 6 or 7? plecos due to his husbandry practices...
I'm not into arguing with what's the recommendable minimal footprint for any fish, I prefer the bigger the better plan other than the minimal, it's just that it's irrelevant to talk about it in here and there's a mismatch of his wants to the fish's needs. The OP is also planning to add some tankmates with his jardini in a 75g, that's somehow, like Pole said, "pushing it too far".
I gotta reword what I meant. 180 gallons is enough for jardini alone. But putting a jardini in a 75 bound to have problems. And how do you lose plecos.... I fed my pleco dog food once And it's still alive...

Umm to clarify things up, I didn't lose any plecos... the OP did. He lost 6-7 plecos... And to surprise you, it's not fancy plecos, they're your hardy common plecos...
Tank mates is irrelevant. If you have sufficient filtration it does not matter. If the fish is not aggressive is does not matter. All that matters is tank size for comfort of fish. A 150g is bare minimum and for a full grown jardini it is still pushing it. I would say 180g should be the minimum.
