I just got a 1.5inch EBJD and put him in a 75g with a 8 inch common pleco, i wanted to create a "blue" tank by adding a few gourami, a texas, a female convict, and maybe a blue jewel....is this combo "safe'' for the EBJD or should I consider something else? all suggestions are welcome
stocking a 75 with EBJD...

sounds safe but i mean be carefull, in my expirience ebjd are so damn fragile.. i mean maybe i just have bad luck with them.... good luck though..... if its a true texas and not a carpintis than be a lil carefull, they can be downright beligerant and try and run that tank.... well atleast mine does
I wouldn't add any of those competitive Cichlids until that Blue dempsey has grown quite a bit...
A stressed EB = slow but sure death.
only warning ya man, cause i mean i have a true texas and they can be downright mean....... mine took out a red devil... a talapia.... a blackbelt..... a mayan, i mean he just chooses what tankmates he likes and the rest die.. so b careful..
thanks peoples...I wish I could get more EBJD but at 50 bucks a piece one is enough LOL! thats a lil more than the 5-10 bucks I'm used to spending on fish.
Ima hold off on making this set up aggressive, I might get a few blood parrots to keep him company...this should work ,shouldn't it.
Most of my experience has been with glass bangers, so will something like keyholes, rams, or kribs, be ok to place in the 75
