Wow he got beat up pretty bad. Are they both males? And kool pix. Hope he heals soon.

The one that got beat up was the male. I guess this time it didn't work out because last time they mated there was like 200 eggs and everything was fine.

bit of a shame :(

Maybe they are camera-shy.

Sorry to inform that the male jewl is no longer with us. That make 2 of my 7 year old fish that past away. I guess he couldn't handle the beating. :( My son is taking it hard. He is 5.

sorry about the loss

I'm deeply sorry for your loss. That's a real bummer.

is it hard to get a pair can you just put a bunch together and hope?

Cichlid Commander - March 2, 2006 01:55 AM (GMT)
I initially started with 8 and got 3 pairs after a year or so.

Im sorry to hear that it's dead. 7 years is very long and it is going to be hard to deal with. Try to get another pair :D :up: Maybe the one next time won't have to fight so much.
