Will this work? I know some cichlids could get pretty aggressive against any fish. I have a silver arowana and would like to keep festae, veija, green terror, maybe a midas or managuense or both?
Would a Jardini work if not the silver?
 
I keep v. argentea, pair of nics, and a pair of festae with a 34" silver and 20" green aro. while most will say it depends on the fish's personality, it works for me.
 
I am keeping a green terror with my earth eaters and silver aro. He seems to be getting more aggressive.
 
I recently got an aro and a clown knife, as soon as I put them in the tank, the oscar had his mouth open ready for the kill. The clown was beat up pretty bad, that's what he gets for having the shape like a fish filet. Put the oscar in the penalty box and all is well now with the aro and clown.
 
My silver is currently being harassed by my 2x 5" oscars. It hasnt been a real issue with aggression but there is definitively a potential for it. Worse part is the Aros passive nature, he wont stand up for himself other than swimming frantically. It could work but id keep my eye on them for a while. I would skip the green terror, ive seen them do some damage. I lost a 12" pickerel to a 2" terror once
