Sorry your jag didn't make it. If you want to replace him I'm not far from you. you can come to Bolingbrook and pick out a couple to grow out you can have them for free
Great offer from a great guy!:)
 
those look some nice babys! im just not sure if im ready to get another jag just yet. im in the works of getting a couple cichlasoma ornatus!!!
 
I totally agree

hey guys wanted to let everyone whats going on with my jag. first off hes about 12inchs had him since 2inchs. i woke this morning and found him upside down and barely breathing. his eyes were all hazed over and he was dry feeling. so i took him to my freinds fish store locally and we held him upright in a salt water tank for a few mins to treat him for anything. he still didnt stay upright. now hes in a 70 gal tube with melafix and pimafix treatment. hes still breathing but still struggling to move or to stay upright. i didnt do anything different in my tank since last night except add stress zyme. i do have a 5 inch female freddy in the tank with him. i put a divider up yesterday for her so she could swim around and she did she swam by him then back to the area when she got scared. he didnt look like he had gotten beaten up by her. no open wounds no scales missing. this is in a 150 gal tank. the freddy is perfectly fine as we speak. she is swimming all around the tank and doesnt looked stressed by anymeans. me and my fish store buddy are unsure what caused this to happen to my jag. i have my fingers crossed for him. i woke up at 11am thats when i found him.
 
Sorry to hear about your Jag :( Also the guy that made that offer was nice :) I think you should get another Jag or two by themselves in the 150 and grow them up together, that would be cool. I also agree with mounting the Jag, screw what the others think!!! :thumbsup:
