how big could my jag possibly get

[jagsandpits]

I bought him off another member here and kept him for 6-7 months before I sold him to another member here, when I measured him last he was 16 3/4" and was the meanest fish I've ever had, would slam on the glass tops to get at you during feeding time! No stop aggression from him was what prompted me to move him as it was too noisy having him splashing water everytime we were in the living room which is where his tank was...
Would like to know how he's doing and potentially get him back but his whereabouts are unknown now..

That's a 180 he's in to give perspective of his mass

one word.. wow. that is an awesome fish. he makes that 180 gal look like a 55

now I understand what the experts mean when they say "125 absoloute minimum for a full grown specimen"

ok so another change of plans....weird?...I know. my dad just called me he just got in the car after being in what he describes as the nicest cichlid retail store he's ever seen. he was really excited and said the owner promised him he would order a female red terror so when he gets the terror(which has felt like an impossible mission) he wants to just keep the male jag and female terror so im back to square one which isn't a bad thing. stoked. indeed

even if shes his size?

Especially. At least until they are used to each other. To add her in with out a divider will be a fight.a already established cichlid will not take kindly to a fish it's size just being thrown into its tank
