really can't decide what geos I want to add to my tank. I really like all of them but want to stick to just want species of geo along with my paretroplus menarambos and rokteil severums. Looking to add 4 or 5 geos to the 75 gallon. I'm leaning towards red head tapajos but really like the altifrons and surinemsis as well. The paretroplus menarambos are chill fish and big eaters along with the severums so they won't be any problems for the geos I add. What do you all think? Let me know. I'm going for a very natural wild look to my tank I'll show a pic soon.
 
I have kept G altifrons with P menerambo together, the menerambo ignored the Geos and were very compatible in a tank as small as 150 gals for a long time.
When the menerambo hit about 14", things got a bit dicey, and the Paretroplus needed the entire tank, and more.

The altifrons complex contains red head tapajos, and many other variants or species such as winemilleri, and altamira.
