Do I have to keep my mating pair seperate from the other Dempsey's? I had all of them together and got a larger tank. Right before the tank arrived, my surprise when we discovered eggs in the tank and an aggressive momma! We moved the others out into the new tank but the pair is in with the new babies (pictures coming)We did not know we were going to have over 200 (last count). Can we move this pair into the bigger tank with the rest whom they have grown up with? And if so how old do the babies need to be before we can move the parents?

Welcome to Fishlore, Entolson.

I am sure someone will answer, as I have no experience with Jack Dempseys.......as long as it is posted in the species specific area.

It's always fun to get to know new people. Tell us more about your tanks, and send pictures!!! WE LOVE EM!!!
