I am trying to figure out which fish i want....Im in to the GT because of there colors....I like the JD because of the body size.....but when it comes down to COLOR, PERSONALITY, SIZE, ATTITUDE, AND BEING A COOL ASS FISH TO KEEP...WHICH WOULD BE BETTER???
 
personally I"d go for a GT over JD but that's because I prefer cichlids that get nuchal humps. GT's don't always get large nuchal humps but dominant males often do in the presence of a subdominant male.

Both will display great colors though for JD you'll want darker substrate. Both get to about the same size...10-12" usually for adult males. I think GT's might be a little more prone to having a more active personality though than the more reclusive JD's. That's just an average...all fish have their own individual personality.
 
im looking for personal references....
 
I like both, but would go with the GT. I think the GT looks better in my opinion but like I said both are cool fish.
 
I have both. The JD is more reclusive but probablly more agressive than the GT. Overall I get more pleasure from watching the GT.
