IMG_20210129_232921.jpg16120365794993529440802810586428.jpgjust a few days ago we were gonna kill the jack because he's very mean I mean like a parana mean. Not sure what all he is but we bought him as a jack dempsey an have come to see a jaguar resemblance in him any help here?
 
Congrats on the eggs!
Any better pics of the hybrid? It doesn’t look like there’s much jack in there at all. Looks like there is some parachromis though.
 
I’m suspecting there is a bit of Yellowjacket cichlid in there. Cousin to Jaguar but much more yellow and striped.
Especially with the aggression you described.
 
A very stressed fish. I would move him before the pair kills it.
As for species, looks like a jack hybrid (jack con?). Any better shots of him?
 
He's not bothered by them the oscar protects him or her.getting into other phone to get the good pic I have of them both

In all of my tanks, and I’m sure others can agree, hanging near the filter and showing dark colors is usually a sign of being beat up.
How big is the tank overall?
