Easy for you to say, that's a 2 hour drive for me. And when I have gone, they are all very small. I have never seen large jd's there.

hmm.. i didnt know that... i guess i'm just so used to city that i dont recall the rest of US isn't as lucky as California..

Well.... i think cragslist should be your next place to look.... if your not in a big hurry.... get a small female and wait 6 months.. thats what i've notice for jack dempseys.. at 6-8 months old.. they are mature enough....

Both mine have started to pair off.. from when i got them back in November.... and are pushing 5 and 6 inches.. male and female....

sorry for my comment earlier.... sounds a bit dumb now.. being a city folk...

Lol it's perfectly fine. I would buy a small female jd at petsmart but problem is , my only spare tank that has no fish in it, has lots of live plants. I don't want her to eat them
