its actually a 90 gallon but howcome i see youtube videos of people keeping flash zebra juruense cats with tigrinus and other juruense ?

Dude, quit asking the same questions, it makes you sound annoying... Just ask one question and wait for someone to answer, the more you post, the same chance you have of someone answering it.

Because it's youtube, and they may have been in the tank for a day or two, or they just get along. It's all about personal experience, no two fish are alike.

And what size is the pond?

Currently got a 6" tig with an 8" jur. Fine so far but can't see it lasting. Altho they are at opposite ends of a 7th tank all day so I reckon it's fine til they reach a foot and then they'd be safe if I moved one into main tank anyway.

very big it was once a koi pond until they dissapeared 600-700 gallons
 
I have keep both tigrinus and juruense but never together in the same tank. I had two juruense in my grow out tank and they tolerated each other until the larger one got to about 8" and decided he didn't like the smaller one anymore and would attack it when ever it was within reach. Tigrinus in my experience aren't as aggressive as juruense so I wouldn't want to risk it.
 
The thing about mixing fish is hit and miss. It works to someone, but doesn't to other. It works now, but doesn't later. Can't tell, or there's a guideline to follow. The only rule that works everytime for mixing fish is always have a spare tank, in case they fight, to separate them

I don't see a problem with it if you can seperate them or just separating them to begin with if you want 2.
