I noticed a beat up jag with not too much meat on its bones. But the color and pattern were awesome in my eyes, and he/she had a certain spark. Also, nice fangs sprouting. Fish is likely around 7" TL. Looked like it had the potential to be a stunning fish with a lot of good food and care. I picked it up cheap, put it in a 150. Don't know the sex. Hid for a long time, but now has turned into an aggressive feeder, and is finally putting some weight on. Still has a little bit of an eyecloud issue. May remove the jag to a hospital tank and hit it with Furan if it doesn't clear, but I'm trying to get some strength and girth in it first.

the second picture shows some good color in the fins. nice pick up! also i think it might be a boy because spots are kind of showing through the dark spots on the top of the fish. i may be wrong though.
 
Nice save.It has potential and will great in Your care.
