Don't take my word for it ....


The Jack Dempsey cichlid is commercially bred in aquacultures and it is also possible to breed this cichlid in aquariums. It is considered a moderately hard species to breed in aquariums, and breeding Jack Dempsey cichlids will always be extremely aggressive. The Jack Dempsey cichlid will typically reach sexual maturity when it has grown to approximately 7-8 inches (18-20 centimeters). As mentioned above, many aquarists choose to keep the water temperature down in the aquarium to reduce hostile behaviours in the Jack Dempsey cichlid. If you want to spawn your Jack Dempsey cichlids, an increased temperature is however recommended. Breeding Jack Dempsey cichlids should always be kept in their own tank, or in an aquarium divided by glass or net, since the parents are highly aggressive during the breeding period.

hey pal, i am 29 so i believe i am grown enough... also been keeping cichlids for 21yrs. yes that "other guy" is my brother, and it is his friend that has the JD that spawned. saw it with my own eyes. the male was even tiny bit bigger.

you however cannot accept that this is possible with JD's, and this is my point totally. because YOU have not bred a 2inch female JD, then you think its false info. books, references, articles, all give general info on fish. that quote does not state that it is possible for these to breed at smaller sizes. just general info on about what to expect.

so i'll leave it at this. say what you want! what your saying isn't possible i have seen with my very eyes in person...

JD's are cheap, just get a male :) I would try to find a gold or ebjd and make it a little more fun and eye catching.
