my lfs just got in a new geo jurpari and looks like a stud! i have plenty of tanks he can go into but the fish are all too aggressive. then they told me i could put him in a 20usg by himself for life.

is this true?
he'll be by himself

No they can't go in a 20g and not by themselves. They need a 75g with sand and they need other jupari's. They get about 10" long heres a basic profile

All the dwarf julies (ornatus, dickfeldi, transcriptus), brichardi (one pair only please - but you can start with 4-5 small ones and remove the others when the pair forms), all the shellies as already mentioned. Telmatochromis vittatus or bifrenetus (sp?). Lots of tangs would do fine in there!
