I have researched that they are extremely sensitive. I think the mixture of that and the young age is what causes most to die. I picked up one yesterday for fun though. Hes living with my 4 inch pink jack dempsey and so far so good.
Nice video dude.......like to see that u r keeping up the amazing work, u r honestly the best aquarium Channel out there and I’m always happy when I see ur videos pop up in my notifications..... keep up the amazing work in ur videos
Mine won't grow, it's been 1.5inch for a few months now. I keep my water at 7.0ph, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, >.5 nitrate, 82°f. He's not being picked on or anything either. He gets a mix of blood worms, brine shrimp and flakes 3 times a day (not all at once). Electric blue Jack Dempsey's are some of the most beautiful fish in the world but, they seem to be inbred to the point of barely making it. I would give this species another 20 years before it's viable.

Thanks Drew! I wouldn't do this without your support! 🙏😎
i bought 4 of these guys at inch and half they started dying 1 by 1 a month after purchasing did some research and found that others had same issue
We've had them at the shop for quite some time now....I think it might be how they're transported 🤔
I have 3 and so far are almost two inches. Hopefully they don't die.
This is a story I hear to often with this fish
@@mikeironman how did it go
Great info I've never kept them yet but plan on it in the future so thanks for sharing your Knowledge 👍🏾

Man i have mine in a Tank with African Cichlids so im just going to enjoy him until he passes on because i have no room for him elsewhere t
Don't give blood worms
Very nice video 👍😊👏
Thanks!!! I didn't think it came out the good but it's great to hear your support 😅🙌
did you say they are known for their hardiness?? these are the weakest fish you can buy lol
Very informative. Love your vids.
Thanks! And thanks so much for watching!
@@myaquariuminfo I always love watching your vids. They are very high quality and very well made.
Nice video planning to get 4 of these
Nice 😎 let me know when you do!
How many time at day need food younger electric blue Dempsey?
Anyone have any additional advice to care for these
can you keep this with another regular jack dempsey?
I’ve finally got my phone fixed so I can send you a photo of my aquarium. What’s you’re name?
Nice! Add one on Instagram if you haven't already!
Myaquariuminfo okay will do.
Absolutely misleading info, they are NOT known for their hardiness. They are exceptionally fragile cichlids
Another beautiful fish that needs a tank bigger than my apt allows. :(
Mine are fine in 80 degree water need to change your facts
