Ive decided to trim my stock and I will keep
Clown Knife-12 inches
Arowana-10 inches
ARTC-10-12 inches
TSN-4 inches
Peacock Bass-4 inches
Emperor Cichlid-4 inches
This will be my final stock. Right now they are in a 240 gallon tank.
In April or May they will be moved to my 1032 gallon pond. I hope to have pics by Saturday.

You know that is all I keep hearing-ARTC-cant have them with anything.
I have yet to see any sign of aggression from him. Not stating what people say is false-but I have yet to hear from someone who has actually owned or owns one-LOL. I dont know if your aware of my past threads but he actually chills in a cave with my CK.
And if he does one day go psychotic-I have an emergency pond or tank for him. I am well aware of the fishes reputation but also aware that ARTC have successfully been in Community Monster tanks.

Years ago I raised a male juvi dovii and umbee in a 240 gallon tank. I got flamed. Year later they were still cohabitating with pretty much little to no aggression issues. Bottom line is if one knows what he or she is doing some combos can be possible. Not saying I would recommend for someone to try or say its the norm-just saying with the right planning and patience wierd combos of fish can work.
