    Looks more like a jag to me...cichlosoma managuense.

    What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

      That is what I thought also. But I was sure that FRII knew what they were talking about. How much do jags go for?

              actually, this is a nice find as far as sa/ca go. Hit Rico up, I know he's breeding em right now. I don't know how much they go for opposed to EBJD though. It might be more worth it to try and take it back and get your money back

                  Not unless you plan on seperating the two males. They will kill each other before they reach 4".

                    ebjd's are a lot less aggressive they are at 4" now and are doing fine in a 55gal.

                      dude, jds are one of the only ca cichlids that can live together in harmoney their entire lives..

                      males actually enjoy the company of other males jds, now, if and when they do pair up, i seriously suggest you get a second 55g for the other 2, cause mating pairs of jds are not as forgiving,lol

                      but unmated jds do exceptionally well together.

                        Re: help id this fish

                        Should I seperate when the start mateing or when they pair off. Becouse both have paired off with a female but I think they ate too small to breed. And I haven't seen any agration yet. Also should I remove the pair to a breeding tank or just move all the other fish to another tank and leave the pair to breed?
