I am going to get a festae and jaguar later this week for my 150 gallon. A friend needs to rehome her Red Devil that is terrorizing her tank. Would all 3 be able to co-exsist in a 6' 150 gallon tank?

An aggressive RD can take out anything, even in tanks much larger. I wouldn't risk it personally.
I agree 100%. Someone will eventually lose in that scenario if the RD is already an aggressive one. I would not risk it.
The Devil is about 4-5 in and I havent picked up the others yet but Im pretty sure they are small. 2-3in. I have a 20 gallon I could grow them out in for a bit but dont think it would work for too long
A 20 isn't an appropriate size tank to really grow anything out in. Rd's do better in groups. If you want that combo to work I would suggest trading the rd in for a few smaller ones so the other two have a chance, otherwise go with the overstock option and keep things busy.
its best if they are all the same size and are introduced at the same time to prevent fish from taking over the tank right off the bat
i have an rd a barred midas and a jag living together in a tank, full grown with no aggression, so it can be done, i think you would need a larger setup though
