around what age do jack dempsey's start breeding mine are still young and i have a long time to go just curious
 
idk i think ive heard of pairs at like 3 in
 
when mine first started breeding, my male was 5 inches and my female was 3. Thats when I introduced them so I don't know if it can be done earlier.
 
Usually its 4-4.5". There are many reports of spawnings at an earlier size, yet there are stories of them not spawning untill they hit 6".
 
5-6 inches.
