Jaguar cichlid grow out.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Look at their huge eyes haha, it’s crazy that they’re gonna grow into 14+ inch monsters. You’re gonna love them, great fish with amazing coloration!
Good luck and be sure to update us as they grow??
I know they look almost stuck on ???. I can't wait for them to get a little size to them, I will do definitely ?.
 
On to day three and although they haven't changed much there attitudes and confidence have grown massively. There still a bit skittish at times but I have been feeding them tiny amounts every 2/3 hours and they seem to be learning im friend with food ?, they also don't mind coming to the surface for food, I thought that would take a while. They can be quite *****y with each other already I noticed which I never expected at such a small size, 2 of them stay together constantly and the third lives solo around the wood he dosnt seem to like the other 2 very much ?.
 
What have you been feeding them at such a small size. Do they have any trouble finding food
At the minute they get a mix of a few different protein flakes I picked up and some micro pellets (although I'm considering just crushing up some hikari cichlid gold for them instead). They have also been getting some raw shrimp cut really small.

They have no trouble at all finding the food they come right up to the glass at feeding times and have no issues feeding straight from the surface either. Which I must say surprised me at there small size.
