Do trimacs get along well with other American Cichlids? I have a 125 i'm considering moving my demspey, green terror, blood parrot, catfish, and pleco to. I was wondering if I'd be able to add a trimac in the 125 with them without anyone getting killed.

They might be ok with the parrot but other they don't really get along with anything.

i would think the parrot would be the first to go. All depends on the trimac, chances are that he will be the king of the tank and he will let you know what stays and what goes.
 
Depends on the trimac. You would have a better chance growing juvies out together but you never know. I have seen people with large 750 gallon tanks get overtaken by a large SA cichlid with all the other fish crammed into one corner.
 
I have two titanium flowerhorns and two umbees in a 125 and they get along at this point. They all range from 3.5 to 6.5
