An adult JD, especially male, will consider a tank of 79g or less his territory. Keep this in mind.

I have 3 adult males, 2 of which are 10 inches or so. Both are very accepting of tankmates. I have one in a 75 right now with a chocolate and cons. My experience is that JD's are very accepting of tankmates unless they look like them. I am sure there are aggressive JD's out there, but mine are very easy going with tankmates.
 
I've never seen an aggressive JD either.. Although I'm sure they could be. I think it all depends on how they were raised. If you raised one up from fry in a 100gallon with no tankmates and then you put him in a 75gallon with 5 other fish he might be mean. But if he were raised up with tankmates he should be fine.
