General Comment: The Jack Dempsey is a popular freshwater fish that originates in the murky
warm waters of Central America. It has a base color of dark brown to gray, and
displays many iridescent blue and green spots, giving this fish a spectacular
look. When breeding, these colors will intensify. The dorsal fin is lined in
red, and the female's overall coloration is subdued compared to the male.
The Jack Dempsey requires an aquarium of at least 50-gallons, with a fine
sand bottom. There should be rocks and roots for them to hide among. The plants
should be hardy as the Jack Dempsey will burrow around and attack them. The
aquarium should be divided into territories using hardy plants, if possible.
They are territorial and will eat smaller fish that they can swallow.
It is difficult to distinguish between the male and female Jack Dempsey. The
females are less brightly colored and usually smaller then the males. Neutral
water with soft to medium hardness, a pH of approximately 7.0, and temperatures
of 78-82°F is recommended. Jack Dempsey's are open breeders that need
well-oxygenated water. They spawn in burrows, laying up to 500 eggs. The fry are
well protected by the parents, and once mated, they will continue to spawn once
the fry have grown.

 As
all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs.
Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to
state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale
no longer work as 02/22/10.
We are changing our tropical fish
suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back,
because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,
15 years of selling tropical fish online and
safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any
complaints!!!
