Jason, awesome looking pair, the male looks great as does the female!!!! Glad you finally got that big Jag you wanted!!!!

thank you:) i really appreciate it. im glad i came across them the way i did:) Im raising one of their babies thats about 5" now and was planning on him as my male:) i really like the little one alot. maybe this pair will grow on me;)
 
Nice pair. What generation are these? My pair eats fine up to the point they are about lay, then chill for a few days and then start eating a little bit more and more until the fry are free swimming then they start eating at a normal pace. Well you will be overflowed with Jags now......mine spawn every few weeks unless I let them raise the batch or take out there rock. My male is picky with food. Loves Krill and Hikari Bio gold + and that's all he'll eat. The female will pound pretty much anything.

My friend dropped this pair off to me so i have no clue what generation, im not too concerned with it. cause honestly its not like jag fry are that profitable. im sure he picked them up from lfs. i got the male to eat pellets last nite. the female eats everything lol. and its cool if they spawn i could use some extra feeder fry;)
 
Thank you guys:) im glad you think so. Im not saying the male is crappy by no means, im just very particular in how i want my male jag to look. And honestly i have a lil growout from this pair thats 5" and i like that lil guy better:)

As far as the generation thing goes sometimes it matters sometimes it doesn't mean a thing when it comes to looks. The only time I would prefer generations on Jags are for the Honduran Race other than that you never know. My pairs are form a LFS and IMO they look great. Male tons of blues and some greens as well. From what I've seen some of the best red devil / Midas on this site come from pet smart. Keep us updated.

I totally agree with you:) look at Ralph3545's Umbee. its f2 and gorgeous. beauty is in the eye of the beholder. as far as generation thing goes imo its only important if your breeding and want the healthiest genes.
