Bravo! Amazing work by both of you. Takes a lot of dedication and the updates were excellent keeping people here up to date on your projects. I've successfully bred my Gold Jd's here on long island quite a few times. Sold the offspring to a few LFS here on Long Island. One of which and a rather large store told me they wouldnt purchase them because there is no such thing as Gold Jack Dempseys and that they were an African Cichlid hybrid, lol. Well his competitor down the road couldn't keep them in stock they flew out so quick. When I started attempting Ebjd X Gjd I couldn't they were all infertile. Later I was successful with a spawn of Gjd x Bgjd. Unfortunately Dad wasn't such a great parent.
Took a year off from it, but I think I am going to jump back in it again. Would be interested in any of your fish were for sale.
