electric blue terrors

[loucas6290]

wow.. its good to be back i havent posted in a while, but as of a few days ago i was in my lfs and i found a rare pair of electric blue juvenile terrors, they are about an inch long right now and are just settling into the tank, is there anything that sets them apart from green terrors in behavior or reaction to water and temperature that i should be highly aware of. right now they are in their own 20 gallon tank because they were a little underfed at the lfs but now they are looking much better. any advise will be appreciated, i will attach some pics of them for veiwing pleasure sorry the pics are a bit blurry they just wouldnt sit still

first dempseys, now green terrors!?!?!? I want to know the process of making longfin varietys, electric blues, and these special morphs

I'm sorry, but the store gave you a ruse. Those are blue dempsies, which are rarer than many fish, but not that rare.


Blue Dempsey:

They are non-the-less a delightful find and quite beautiful . As far as I understand, blue demps tend to be more peaceful and stay slightly smaller than your regular jack dempsey.

yea those do look like blue dempseys. and yes, I have heard they are less aggressive than the regular Dempseys.
