Ime they're not excessively mean but sure don't take any crap either though. A 75 gallon isn't enough tank to house a male Jag for life but will do for a while. They can be picky or stubborn when it comes to feeding but be patient and train them to eat cichlid pellets. I would stay away from live feeders completely or that's all they'll ever want. Trying to keep plants would be a lost cause I think. My Jags have always moved sand and rocks around quite a bit mostly pushing all the substrate to the sides of the tank. They are quite personable fish and one my favorites even though so common.
 
yeah that is what i heard about them and they would be a cool fish to have but i just want to house him for like a year and a half so that i can get the money to get a 125 together
