The jag alone, if its male will eventually outgrow that tank.

both can be aggressive

They may be compatible if the tank is big enough. If each has a territory of 24-30 sq ft, it might work. Here is an interesting journal article on territory size for the much smaller convict cichlid:

Thanks to you all I think I’d rather keep the G. Terror hopefully tank is ample for him and maybe a couple of smaller cichlids

4x2x2 will be perfect for a green terror.
