huge jag cichlid in st louis

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
def not a dovii i may be a little off on the size but i can promise you not by much. fish is probably 2 inches wide and close to 5 inches tall. all i can say is go check it out. i know mr. firemouth said he was gonna go out there and take pics not sure when. i am 90 min away so i wont be posting pics anytime soon. remember fish has been raised in a 4000 gal tank, so maybe the doubters should check it out before disputing. i think someone in st louis should go give it a look and measure it and post results.
thanx salty

Well, thats cool and all dude, but Nature is a lot bigger then 4000 gallons. Also, they don't get that big in nature. So unless its a freak fish, you're probably very, very wrong. 16" is a very big healthy male at its maximum size.

No my vet where I take my dogs has an 18" Jag in the display tank about 450 gallons+ along with tons of SD's and pim cats. It is very possible he miss calculated his measurement but I am certain this Jag is 18". I will get pics next time I got to the doggy doctor.

That would be awesome, i've read several threads where people offered to eat their hats if ANYBODY could submit a picture of a Jag over 16"

I always hear of jags over 16" but never seen one, and I don't mean that I haven't seen one in person, I mean at all... I've looked for pictures to no avail.
 
mojo u wouldnt know,4 sure.all proof comes to those who wait. mojos cut cause his is smaller.i seen urs pally.....hahahahahaha
 
search managuense on yahoo and theres several info articals saying they CAN occasionly reach total lengths of 22inchs in the wild.although rarely.do ur homework boys.even when i get my pics from underwaterworld 4 yall some idiot will still wanna argue so go there urselves and if u say u cant then u will never truly know will ya.look i am the biggest dovii lover and didnt think mannys got so big but they do.i think I can tell the dif between the 2 species.by the way mojo,wide angle lens ay,hand looks pretty proportionate to me.
 
soooooooooooo! are you gonna get us pics?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
 
i pmed the owner of the fish asking its size and for a pic, i guess if he sends one we will see. the fish could absolutely be smaller than i think, my wife says i cant tell how long something is anyway haha. but im tellin you im not off by much this thing is huge. tank is 4ft deep and eight foot front to back. the fish never came any closer than 2ft from the front of the tank as it was keeping the rd fry grouped up, just a massive fish. it was in with dovii, midas, rd, these fish were in the eight inch range and looked like convicts in comparison. anyone in the area should def check this place out. it was perfect the wife and daughter shopped the rest of the mall and i sat in front of fish tanks.
