The Jar has been with the silver since it was 5". When it reached 11", it began targeting the silver that was more than x2 of its size, but not any other fish. Then took some measures to subdue the fish by introducing a Midas, taking the fish out from time to time into a smaller tank until the fish's ego was subdued! It's been several weeks since its return to the 210g and hasn't bothered any other fish. In fact, the silver is the dominant one now.
The Black aro has been in the tank for about a month and half. The Jardini doesn't bother it.
The Jardini hasn't shown any aggressiveness that I hear about from many other owners.
Wow. They're all friends? Nice collections. Hope my jardini would be mellow. I heard from other members that when jardinis reach the 12" mark, that's when they get crazy. Hope it's just a myth though.

Well, it's not really a myth. However, I've also seen aro comm tanks with Jars in them. Make sure that you have another tank that could be used to transfer the Jar if it gets rough.
Yup, i have a reserve tank for him. My rbp tankangeladay said:
j/k He is about 5-6" right now hopefully he would behave himslef w/ the other aros i got. I never saw a jardini w/ other tankmates larger than 10". So I'm pretty much excited what's gonna happen. If he goes crazy, then i have to let him go.
