Ok I have real important question about my Festae. Do they eat a lot or are they picky eaters or what? It seems like I have never seen him eat anything but the blood worm scraps. What's up with that? And from the picture's I have seen I think I have a Male is that correct?

need a better pic, get a close up of the dorsal fin. from this pic though, i agree w/ur guess, but it could just as well to be a female. on the feeding habit, how long have u had it? u can starve it out for a little then start feeding it. that way it'll know that u r the one feeding it, cuz these guys aren't picky eater at all...like other cichlids, they chow down anything
 
This is the first time I ever had one and I have had this one for two months. I got it at LFS. It is in a tank with 2 jags;False terror;Green Texas;Firemouth;Orng Pike.
 
Cant really get any good pics because it was my friends camera and he doesn't let anyone touch it so I will have to submit more pics after I purchase a real camera.:confused:
