Jaws I have 2 adult females in my 180 with a 10 inch cb del, 10 inch endli, 6 inch male sen, purple wolf 4 mixed sd's, 3 adult geo cichlids and they all get along well.
The largest ornate is the boss and will nip occasionally when she doesn't want any one near her lol. I don't have a full led strip across the top because I want them to have a place to rest from the light. The ornates are active sometimes, and I will catch them swimming around.

Ornates seem to be labeled somewhat aggressive by a considerable amount of people, but I have had no problems what so ever with my large female (I think she's probably pushing 14" now, but hard to tell), and my smaller ornate (about 5"). That being said the personality of a particular fish can vary just as in the personality of people.
My 13" ornate isn't aggressive at all but it does try and hide all the time .... The 5" one I used to have u wouldn't even no it was on the tank I saw it maybe 10 times in 6 months lol
