Looking to add kelberi

[Lkeizm]

Looking too add a kelberi into my 280 72x30x30

Fish that will be in there
Oscar
Jack dempsey
Electric blue acara
Severum
Ornate bichir
Teguelsi bichir
Endi bichir
Flagtail
Datnoid

After reading how aggressive asian aros can be I'm looking for an alternative being a kelberi or some other species of bass
How aggressive are kelberi? Are these considered the least aggressive bass? I'm well aware the acara will be ate but will get rid of him way before that happens
Is the tank big enough? Can they be kept on their own or best in groups?

In a 280g, personally I would keep 3? Not sure bassinmike85

Is that 3 including the stock already or would you thin the stock out?

It can be kept on its own, without other bass. Although eventually it would be able to swallow the electric blue acara

Yeah I did think it would eat the acara, would probably thin abit of the stock out anyway, only keeping the larger stuff, how aggressive are peacocks? Do they like to pick fights or pretty chill majority of the time?

Depends on the personality. It might try to challenge whoever is on top. Not generally as aggressive as Central American cichlids

is that tank big enough for a kel? I thought all p bass needed a 8ft tank.

That’s why I asked by considering these get 24 inch tops and that’s quite rare in assuming 30 inch width would be ideal, going off what people are saying
