Very nice! I love Jags!


Thank you sir. I have kept Jags for as long as I have been doing this crazy obsessive hobby. I love the Parachromis family 100% as well.

that swarm of jags looks great, good way to get feeders anytime you need too

It is for sure. They have spawned 6 times since the first spawn. The fry you see in the photo are all from the first spawn.

awesome, man....lookin' good

Thanks to you man! I owe you big time. For all that don't know this is Pauls old Jag male that he sold me and I desperatly needed. My female was laying egg's with no male in site so I got her a Male and the rest is history. There inseparable at this point. Thanks to PWMIN. And yes this male is aggressive he is the only fish that I have to watch when I clean the 100g. He comes from anywhere in the tank just to let me know he is the king in this tank.

Very neat. How do you keep your water quality up with all of those little guys in with the parents? Also, have the adults began eating the little ones yet? Mine started eating the little ones when they decided they wanted to spawn again, and the fry were smaller than yours appear to be. Nice pair by the way.

Only solution that I have come up with is get a dedicated breeding tank if thats what your goal is. After the spawn remove the parent's. I can leave my female in with the fry just not the male. I have noticed this with all of my pairs.
