2 8inch jds
1 acura
1 green terror
1 blood parrot

would they get along and is a 75g thank big enough for them will be using a cascade filter for a 100g and 1 power head also has a filter sponge and 1 wisper i40 fiter or is it 2 much
 
well I think alot of people are ganna say no, personally I think it MIGHT work but youd need some massive filteration

edit: didnt see two JD's thats alot and as knifegill says, if they spawn they will kill everything else
 
Like, with a drop kit and low-profile tires?! Yeah, way bigger tank. Like a garage.

Seriously, yeah, that's a little much. With a lot of water changes you could do it but it would be hell for you. Try the JD pair with just one other large cichlid. The acara might fit too, but you'll want to drop one of the beefy cichlids. And that's for stocking. If the JD's spawn they might kill everyone anyway.
 
so i need more fiteration? how about if i used 1 more wisper i40 that 2 total and the power head and a cascade

you will not get away with that stocklist without something as strong as an Fx5, a cascade filter cannot handle the bioload

HOB filters cant handle the bioload unless you had tons and tons, it would be cheaper and easier just to get an Fx5
 
you could try going with an AC110 which is a HOB and just get a less powerful canister, I forgot what it was called, but its like a mini Fx5 thats rated for 100g aquariums
 
how about the mag 350 is that good 2
