Can i put a jack dempsey with a peacockbass or will the jack bully the pbass or the other way around. It is a 90 gallon aquarium
 
Peacock Bass get Way too big for a 90 and I dont think that would be a good mix at all.The Smallest Peacock Bass (the Royal) grows to just under 2 feet in length and the largest can grow to just over 3 feet in length with a huge mouth.They are Predators in their own right and I could see the JD getting punished.I haven't personally kept Peacock Bass but this seems a given to me.
 
I'd have to agree with Grafy on this one. I also would not purchase the Bass unless you have a 200+ gallon tank ,indoor pond or the $$ to buy a large tank set aside.
