I live in Massachusettes,and am having a terrible time locating any Jags,my regular LFS has changed completely and doesnt carry any large cichlids anymore.All they have are like 1 inch babies(way to small)all i'm looking for is like a nice 5-6 inch Jag.I really do like the Parachromis species and Jags are my favorites!!!If anyone out there lives in Mass or even Conneticutt and wants to get rid of 1 let me know!!!Thanks!!:thumbsup:
 
jags grow pretty fast i believe, just get a 1 incher and grow it, power-feed it, that's what grow-out tanks are for
 
I like growing my fish from young.
 
Where I'm from I never saw any until we picked up a breeding pair now I see them all over the place, Some LFS even has them labeled as Aztecs. I have 3 juvis in our 75 and would like to find someone to take them off my hands and since they are now all over the place athe LFS don't want them either.
