you can do almost anything really. it all depends on how lucky you are.
I had my 55 with a GT, Jag, Festae and Red Devil. People sad Id have probs but none happened. A few games of tag but no deaths or serious injuries. People also said thats over crowded and would stunt they growth. they all got to 10-12" and I sold em.

That tank woulda brought sadness upon me to see it, all those awesome bruisers cramped in a 55gal..............

DW...my male 'belly crawler' was 9" when he died....and was an aunry bugga.....would take on my salvini, severum, and jags without hesitation.

i'm probably gunna get a GT.

Only 1 jack dempsey as it'll claim the tank to its entire self and won't let anything else in there

Are they really all that aggressive, i picked up 2 and a green terror for my 55 gallon, and the guy working there said they would be fine.

That tank is gonna have tons of problems... the green terror itself is pushing it.. I'd suggest just getting rid of a jack dempsey and the green terror so they won't be killed.
