Jack Dempsey Cichlid - 1-2" Unsexed. Remarks: The Jack Dempsey cichlid is a large, colorful, and territorial species native to Central America. They are mostly found in Mexico, but they can also be found in Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras in a variety of different habitats. This diversity in natural habitats has made the Jack Dempsey cichlid a very hardy and adaptable species when in captivity. They have been known to thrive in both hard and soft water but they usually are the healthiest and show the most amount of color when kept in neutral conditions. For many years Jack Dempsey cichlids have been a popular cichlid among aquarists due to how hardy they are, their impressive size, feisty nature, and bright colors. While juveniles only have a few metallic blue scales, they tend to get more and more as they age until it covers. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
