Electric Blue Jack Dempsey Growth Journal

[flat_tire]

These Electric Blue Jack Dempsies are my absolute favorite right now. Just got this little guy and he is barely an inch long. Can't wait to watch him/her grow up.

I take my earlier opinion back, it looks male. Especially in that second photo. Very long fins and a defined jaw line. Anyone else agree?

Yeah that's a classic male shape to it all right. He'll be a bruiser pretty soon. Looks like he's pushing around 5-6 inches atm from how the pic looks.

Thanks for the feedback. ? Yeah about 6" or so right now. I'll have to snap a recent pic when I get home from work.

Does anyone's EBJD suffer with drop eye often? My one seems to get it every month or two. Always clears up, but getting frustrating now.

Thanks. I've had him about 1-1/2 years and was about 2.5" when I got him so I figure just shy of 2 years old.

Yeah I've never heard of drop eye problems in JDs, just aros. Mine has had no eye issues. Does yours only feed from the bottom?
