Today I just added a Green Terror Chiclid and Jaguar Chiclid bringing the total of fish to 10 in my 75 gal. Now I have 2 oscars one albino tiger and one red, 2 plecos, 1 figure 8 puffer, 2 Jack Dempseys, and 1 Texas Chiclid. The Texas Chiclid being the largest in the tank by a few a mils compared to the rest kept chasing the Green Terror until he got tired and faced off with him. It was cool to finally see a full fledge face off. Being that they are all still young their colors haven't come in yet I can't wait to see them mature.

sorry, doing the 1 finger typing as i eat ice cream
They are called cichlids, not "chiclids". You got way too may fish in your tank. Plus you need to remove tat puffer ASAP!
I stand corrected you are right but once the other tank is up I'll be able to have alot more flexability.Pyramid_Party;4374405; said:
The puffer is a brackish fish, how long have you had him/her in that tank? You DEF need to get it out and into a brackish setup, they can last a few months even more if the water is just right but I don't see it lasting much longer. It too is a very aggressive fish and will nip your other fishes fin, it killed my goby dragon within 2 days of mine being it the tank ):
The tank is def WAY to small for that many fish. Once they reach maturity and are in that tank the fights will progress even more.
I noticed you are building a bigger tank. Which is very good but the tank you have now wont be enough in a few months.
Good luck on this project. Hope it goes well.

Sorry have to agree with everyone though I'm also guilty of overstocking at times. Too many fish, Jaguars get gorgeous when mature why not focus the set-up on them alone. No matter what you choose I wish you good luck.
