Aggression Issues

[nano cichlids]

sigh well JD#1 might have to be removed as she is just to aggressive, Both EBJD hide from her and JD#2 and #3 are constantly chased around the tank, i think im going to look at work on Monday in my JD breeding tank for a different F1 female yes JD#1 is a F1 as well from the same spawn to. i only bring a few home for breeding and display. her parents where wild caught but i cant remember where from. anyway back on track im going to post pics of all the females im using for breeding and lets hope each ones a female.

JD #1 so far as we know is a very aggressive female

JD #2 theres no way this one isnt a female

JD #3 im not positive but id say female

How large are your females compared to your EBJD males?

With the bit of rust color near the mouth it appears to all being female. Pictures and I don't get along that well.

the female that's aggressive is larger then the males EBJD but other then that there all smaller

The ebjd male almost certainly will have to be bigger than the jd female. The ebjds just aren't as strong as normal jds, and unless the male can cow the female, she's going to kick his butt all over the tank!

Until he dies Most EB breeders make dang sure the Male is larger than the female for this reason
