My 1 year+ old jaguar cichlid is dieing! I got it at 2" and ending its life at 2". I do take care of my fish! This one just didn't grow. I feel so bad, this fish was so active, It the second day that it has bin looking down but now their is little movement (only gill movement). Should i somehow just ends its life so it doesn't have to go threw this pain?

wait,your jaguar never grew at all and what size tank?When I use to have a jaguar that was 3 inches,he grew to 7 inches in 5 months.

Its in a 55G. It never grew. The other jag i bought at the same time is now 10+ inches long. That was when i put it into the 125G
That is odd for the Jaguar not to grow then,cause I had mine in a 55 gallon with a GT,Oscar,JD,and Severum as a grow out tank and the Jaguar that I use to have outgrew my JD who was already 5 in half inches at the time.Also as he said it,a runt too,which i can see happening,but never ran into that issue.

Well i had it for 1year+ and it was the feistiest of all the fish i had. It recently has bin alot more agressive with my pike. So i think the pike has beaten it to death as it was hurt yesterday. But now its almost dead. =\
yea, i have a female flowerhorn that has been 2 " for 6 months and all of the siblings are 6"+, fish seems healthy and active even laid eggs but will most likly meet an early fate due to whatever genetic anomoly caused the stunted growth.
if not the genetics then the fiesty male thats been knocking her around in his urges to breed, 4x her size
