Jag growth diary

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Last time I tried dithers, they lasted half a day. He just ate half their bodies and spat their heads out everywhere. I'll probably try some tinfoil barbs or bala sharks. Tinfoil barbs seem way too fragile to me. Also, what is the difference between meal worms and regular earth worms nutrition-wise and protein-wise?
 
I initially bought a 2 jags and then added 3 tinfoils and the jags happened to be male and female and paired and laid eggs. None of the tinfoils were ever touched by them cause they're faster in q tank smaller than yours. They were smaller in size and the jags never got close to enough to bite them only to chase them. Just make sure you get larger ones. Their natural instincts will tell them to stay away from the jag, they are faster swimmers.

If that thing is a male it will grow fast. When I originally got my first jag he didn't eat pellets when I added the 2nd one he would eat them after seeing the other eat it. I feed it Hikari Cichlid Gold. The male's growth was a lot faster than the female.
 
nice fish
 
Whoa, my bad, I meant silver dollars, lol. Anyways, I guess it's about time I update on my fish, if he'll come out for a photo, that is. Still haven't seen the bugger eating pellets. -.-
 
So where are you gonna get a Dovii? :ROFL:

Good thing about those fry that you're gonna get is that they're already eating crumblings of Hikari sticks! :naughty:
