Finally

Finally got the tank up about a week ago, much trial, MUCH broken parts, little error, and the h20 is spot on. Here is the first add to the water.

I kept those back in the long ago. They're easy to get to breed too.

I've seen some incredibly blue ones. And, when you get tired of feeding them you can eat em.

Yeah....I have never quite seen one like this...the colors are unreal. I used to have a foursome of them a few years back, and NONE were this dark. Ive seen dark babies, but none his size with that color.

Ok then what is it :P

Its just a super nice Jack...Shaun got it :D

Man....

...This fish's colors are amazing......I am stunned

That's a crazy dark JD! I used to have one but he was all light n silvery n junks. I'm diggin it!

Nice Jack Dempsey..... I miss my fish tanks.... Get your self a Peacock Bass...

We have another that is very light, while this one remains very very dark. He colors up soo much when food is around.

The local fish store I just bought my Tiger Oscar from has some unreal looking Neon Blue JDs. I wanted to pick one up to put in the tank with my oscar, but I didn't wanna spend that kind of money on a fish that I may have to get rid of if the Oscar gets too aggressive with him...

Nice JD Pat! I'll have to post some pics of my fish when I can get some good ones...

Thanx. I really like the neon blue ones...drool


got a quick vid of the locals.

Beautiful Jack,
Love the dark almost black color and wonderful blue speckling.
Looks just like my Diablo, only my boy has a very bright red stripe along the top of his dorsal fin.

Pat I thought I saw a red devil in there that is my favorite. But I don't think your blood parrot will survive as the red will undoubtedly rule the tank and not let any other fish swim in the middle of your tank. They will interact with you and ram the tank sometimes!

Actualy the Red Devil and Parrot have been mating, and getting along just fine.

They made a nest and have been doing the "dance"

I had to read up on parrots and learn that they are a hybrid of the Red Devil and Midas. So I was not as shocked to see them breeding as I once was.

They have been going for about 6 months, and have not had one injury. I even added a smaller parrot, and they seem to get a long GREAT!


I had my worries on the Jaguar "Manguense" They are usually pretty intense. But this little guy is pretty laid back.

Weird........ double post.

I love Jack Dempsey's! You got a little stunner!

Awesome Dempsey! I've always admired them.

Its nice to see that there are other people here that have fish, especially cichlids. You have a very nice Dempsey, looks like it could be a male.
Parrots are actually a gold severum x midas hybrid. This is why the males are typically unfertile. If your parrot is a female, she should have no problems producing viable offspring with your red devil. Good luck!
