all shoal has the potential to go bad not just mix shoal. so it depends, but ternetzi is from cooler water and piraya too (according to the river temp of rio san francisco og opefe) when compare to cariba and most reds ao that could have an effect on aggression when you have them all at a typical temp of 78-82F.
I have a baby serra, got it at ~1" its growing about 0.5" per month. also had a 6.5" rhom grew to 7.2" in 4 months and a 6" manueli grow to 7.5" in 5 months.
the 8" rhom I have now grow from ~4.5" to current size in 3 years by previous owner.

So what is a good temp to keep Terns at?

from what I have read 72-79F
Ternetzi is from Rio Paraguay/Rio Parana if not mistaken, according to data from OPEFE water temperature there is 70-77F

it would be nice to be able to keep them at 75

yea can probably even keep the heater off during summer times.

Only time I use a heater is in egg & fry tanks. None of my tanks have heaters.

I can't, my basement is in the 60's range wish I didn't need heater, that would save me a lot of bills
