Come August i am going to be setting up a 150 gal tank - i am looking into breeding my own pair of EBJDs. Would you be willing to ship some of the fry you receive in the future? I dont want to get them from my LFS because i cant see the background of them. So i am worried i will end up with massive beaks..shortened fins..etc.
EBJD - Yankeejack and Jexnell Collaboration

That's from a site selling them as Electric Pink Jack Dempsey. I thought they looked the same as

Decided to wait till Yankyjack's next spawn to get some from him instead.

Here are some pics of a Platinum female that I've been prepping for spawning. She hooked up with one of the BG fry from Jexnell's male, Jack.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a pic of the eggs before they got eaten (they're in a community tank -- wasn't really planning on the spawn.)
She's got some nice coloration in the fins.
Her ovipositor is still out from the egg-laying. Hope it goes back in, it's been out for a couple of days now ?? !!

That guy is just a BG? It looks like Jack when he was younger. He has some great spangeling going on.
