Cichlasoma managuense Jaguar Juvies

[dblondfemme]

I have these beautiful 1.5-2" juvies who need a home.
okay...
a) will eat anything that can fit into their mouths
b) would do well with aggressive fish BIGGER than them
c) can grow very large
d) need a good sized tank to grow but can breed in a 10 gallon
e) excellent parents

$1.50 each right now.  I have a feeling I will be taking these to Charles...but am giving the opportunity to my friends here.
I am including a picture of a brother of theirs from a November breeding of Mike's large Jags.  My boy is gorgeous and is between 5.5"-6.0"

He is actually strangely docile with anything that fights back...but I don't have anything larger than him.  He shares his tank with two plecos who smack him with their tails if he acts too bad lol.  I have a strange fascination with the species.  Strange thing... not too many people share the same fascination.  I have a smaller Jag who I believe is male as well that shares a 55 mixed WAY mixed tank with many other species and there is no problem.

Um...update... the smaller of my jags that lives with a mixed species tank just ate a rather large pink convict....I'll see if i can get a pic.  I need to thin out my tanks... and put the right fish with the right fish lol.
*rubbing my head* she gave me a migraine.
