Hi JDman...
Bet I know what your fav fish is? :wink: They are currently living in a 55g tank that is below in my siggie. A week ago I bought what was told to me where D.Cichlids, only much to my surprise turned out to be after some research, a juvi JD and a juvi Firemouth. They are all just at two inches or a hair smaller right now. NOT what I had planned on keeping with the Angel fish, cardinal tetras and rainbows. So I have had to do some shuffling around my other tanks this week. Not permanent housing, but til I figure out what to do other than get another 55g at a later date, this is all I was able to come up with. I didnt have the heart to return the JD and Firemouth after housing them for a week. So I thought.. ok, I will go with a large fish tank for a change. I was wondering what 'strain' of Jewels these are. Below is a photo of my juvi JD and Firemouth that the LFS sold me as D. Cichlids. :roll: But they are cute. Now I found out after research, that the Jewels are A. Cichlids, and I am housing CA Cichlids, which is not a good idea to mix the two. I will have to do a wait and see on this and watch them carefully.
Thanks for the reply!
