    I don't think anything else would go in that tank with 2 JD's. They are a larger and aggressive cichlid and I don't think they will allow any other fish in a 68 gallon with them.
    If it's called tourist season why can't I shoot them?
    Brutal honesty will be shown on this screen.
    I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
    Tolerance is a great thing to have, so is the ability to shut up.

    a mated pair of JDs don't take kindly to any other fish in a 68g.
