I had my 2" dat In a 125g With a jag, arowana once, and similar aggressive fish with no problem.

There is always the chance. Buttikoferi, the hornet cichlid, can be killers.

if all the community move to bigger tank is it still killing each other?

Well you would need a much bigger tank for the aro regardless of tankmates. But unless you go huge the jag and butti will always be a danger. Plus don't the asian aro's have a reputation as a fish that flips like a switch and kills all its tankmates out of nowhere?
