Just territorial, he doesn’t seem too bad so far but that could change as he gets larger. He’s in a 90 gallon with a female Buttikoferi and 2 male convicts, I’m growing him out for my 7 inch female jag. He’s already chasing after my hand when I’m moving stuff around, now I gotta keep an eye on him and my 12 inch buttikoferi, yikes.
A little update on Cheetah, he’s about 8-9 inches right now. Pretty satisfied with him, on the lighter side with coloration (not as gold as my female Jag) but I don’t mind. Extremely Pleased with his body shape, imo I like the more streamlined, torpedo look better, as opposed to taller jags.
Pics were in natural lighting but slightly edited to better see the blues in his fins. Please excuse the algae and horrible substrate, I’m planning on removing it and adding black sand which would hopefully help him to darken up. I’ve noticed that he only darkens up when stressed so it’s not a big deal if he doesn’t really darken up. Also gonna get larger terracotta or clay pots to provide more hiding places.
