JD Tankmates? suggestions please

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
my first new tank mate was a texas that's a little bit bigger and they are doing fine prolly gonna pick up a green terror :D yay for terror. i'm sorry peanut but i've never seen a pike i like in any of my LFS :( , thanks for the ideas though maybe a convict pair will be added too there is a nice good sized pair at one of my LFS. one's psuedo-albino i like em.
 
i just don't really wanted a mating pair as i wouldn't want more aggression. i have heard many people say that any cichilid's aggression will be higher if it ends up with a mate. and the one i got is still a juvi only about 2.5-3 inchs it is very hard for me to tell their sex at that size only thing i have noticed is that the big blue spots on the female's gill plates starts up pretty early. and if i am wrong about the aggression thing please someone correct me as mostly it is hearsay to me i have never mated fish.
 
yah a blue dempsey would look great but i would still be worried about it getting knocked around
 
At around 4 inches it acts like a regular Dempsey. Ask what's his name. I don't know his screen name but he has a large one that runs the tank. read all the old posts on BJD's and you'll find him. His avitar (pic) is his large BJD.

Just an idea. Don't waste your time if you're not into BJD's.

Every fish is different, fsc. He might have just got the more aggressive one out of the bunch, and has anyone seen BJD on lately?


yeah, i havent noticed him on lately. I've been meaning to ask him about his blue jack dempsey.
