Anyone have any advice on what I should feed it? I have him in with a 6 inch JD and some Blue Dempsey's...He is about 1.5" right now
 
i wouldnt say he would be killed overnight depending on the size of him...im surprised your electric blue jacks are still alive living with the regular JD and i would be concerned about the electric blues with the new addition of the jaguar cichlid
 
The Big JD is their father, and they seem to be doing ok he leaves them alone..There is lots of room to hide. The Managuense is about 1.5" he just sits in a log all day
 
oh cool...be prepared htough to move the managuenese becuase it will become very aggressive
 
yeah i agree when it gets even remotely the same size of the ebjd it will have to be moved but for now he is tiny compared to the JDs so just make sure that they all arent terrorizing him and that he is being allowed to get some food
 
Hikari cichlid gold for a staple diet, freeze dried shrimp and earthworms for treats. My kids like to catch leopard frogs and grasshoppers to treat him in the summer!
 
I feed my pair Hikari Bio Gold....its for preditory fish....krill and bloodwroms as a treat once a week.
 
im surprised nobody mentioned that the jag is probably going to be fish food tonight. a 6 inch jack is more then capable of eating a 1.5 inch fish.
