I don't know why you post threads, you don't listen. I know your taking back all of your fish but you need to plan a head and quit going to the LFS and finding a fish that looks cool and buying it. research before buying, that is what is great about the internet. and don't research by looking at youtube videos. I know i'm giving you advice about stocking because even if i did you wouldn't listen, and your not the first person to experiment, people are giving you advice from personal experience.
, NO. Jacks can reach up to 12" (rarely), but putting them in them in that small of a tank would be cruel, yes a jack could be housed in there for a while since they grow slower but not for life, a 55g is a minimum for a jack dempsey.honda237;4032493; said:really????I don't know why you post threads, you don't listen.

OW, and to the person that said that a jack dempsey can be fine in a 30g, NO. Jacks can reach up to 12" (rarely), but putting them in them in that small of a tank would be cruel, yes a jack could be housed in there for a while since they grow slower but not for life, a 55g is a minimum for a jack dempsey.
wait so what is in your 55g now besides the bichir, and what type of bichir is it? and 125g is still to small for payara dude they get HUGEkilldog102;4155329; said:Atleast now I've got a pretty stable stock....Got rid of both GT's and everything in my 55g accept for my bichir and got cichlids, Currently saving up for a 125g and maybe will convert back to payara.
i would think a 90g would be sufficient for a lone male, and that a pair could be kept in a 125 but that would be with lots of water changesbodega style;4155478; said:haha this is a funny thread. cant believe u had a jag in a 55 with all those other fish . Whats a decent size for an adult jag alone i would think a 125 ?
