Good looking bunch. I like that lava rock in the background too. Bare in mind that the oscar will grow much faster than the others but I guess if he is a peaceful oscar you should be fine.
 
I love you ebjd. Very light colored body. And yes the oscar will outgrow everyone so he might need an upgrade sooner than later before he males tanks mate lunch :) in 6 months oscar should be at 5-7" ebjd probably barely 3-4" and jd also barely 5". And tiger barbs are great dither but keep the schools big so they dont nip outside their own. :)

My regular jack chases the ebjd every time blue comes out. No damge to him, but all he does is hide and get chased. I dont know what to do. Any advice? I dont want to get rid of the jd, I just want the ebjd to not be constantly chased or hidden.

The EBJD will die from stress/disease from being stressed out if you don't give him his own tank with a UV filter sooner or later. They're notorious for dying suddenly before reaching 4".
 
Sounds pricey. If aggression doesn't go away I will trade or sell the EBJD. There is any damage done. I am new to aquariums, I am now learning more about EBJD and they sound sickly and weak. He sure is pretty though.
