Here's the new fish I brought home today. They made it through a 2 hour trip.

This first guy is the special guy, only $4 cause of his lack of a tail. He was still punking the oscar that he was with, haha, also in perfectly fine condition and has some nice colors. Also this would be my first jd ever. He is at around 5" tl.

He went in the "pond" with my red terror.

This second one is unidentified, they had it marked as a jd, lol. In the bag, about 3.5". Feel free to id him for me.

This is about 30 seconds out of the bag:

Uh oh, intruding upon my jag's lair (Sorry about the glare.):

And a shot of my jag for good measure. He's about 4" now. I only ever see him eat worms.:

Thanks for looking.:headbang2
 
The unidentified one looks like a GT crossed with a Vieja
 
I was thinking some kind of vieja as well. Not sure about the GT part.
 
Agreed. No green terror in the unknown fish, but it's some sort of veja though. Hybrid of some sort?
 
Its a zonatus, not a black belt. BB have only a spot in their midsection and you can notice a red hue on their gill plate at that size.
