Jack Dempseys: Love them, hate them, why?

They are beautiful but in my experience they don't eat a-lot. I love them still.

I think they look like a turd with sequins...

I bet if no one had ever seen one, and then they suddenly came into the hobby, everybody would jump on it.

+1 on that.. They would be the new craze! I must be honest I do like them because they are beautiful fish but the ones I have owned do just want to lay around on the bottom of the tank after a few years looking all good

A mysterious fish, prone to naps and mood swings. I wouldn't trade mine for anything.

They are nice looking (unless they are old) but they are so boring for a big Cichlid, they dont do much.

I love my JD name General for the most part. Just like all the other fish there pro and cons to each one. I love the coloring that the JD have though one thing i dont really like is that they are (well at least mine is) easly spooked

Mine is often lively like an Oscar (and not much smaller):

Nice video! Fatty Demps! I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping mine doesn't have the bent back - though it seems like they all do!

I like them for Beauty, Appetite, Character.

I hate them for Novice, Dime a Dozen, bent look when Old.
