Electric Blue Jack Dempsey

Our club just did a group order on them and got 21 of the little babies. I put mine at a friends house in his empty 55. It looked so cool with them all swimming in a 20 gal long till everyone picked theirs up.

The electric blues were bred for the color, but the females won't carry the blue gene. You have to breed the male back to a reg female jack, then when the fry gets old enough you breed one of those females back to the father.

There is a lot work to breeding the EBJD's and that is one of the reasons they are so expensive. I just happen to know a breeder and he gave me wholesalers price since I was ordering at a minimum of 18. On aquabid they usually go for 20 to 30 dollars, and if you buy from a wholesaler they will cost you 25 + for a 1 inch juvie.

The ones I have are from the "HOLLYWOOD" line.
I got them from a local breeder who paid $1000 for the parents!

They sell @ the store I work @ for $25 bucks

If they are selling for that in a store, you got off cheap. Everywhere else they are 40 to 50$ each.

Glad mine came from a private breeder, got them for 13.50 each wholesale.

This was taken the day that they came in, still washed out from the shipping and lighting not that good.

Color starting to come back
