  1. Gold's Aquarium in Calgary has a few in stock now at $34.99 each. They are about 2" long. I was thinking of getting one but was told that they often grow up with deformities. Does anyone have any experience in that matter?

    I have had 2 of EBJD for about 6 months.

    I love these little guys, but they are not hardy fish for sure!

    They have NOT grown ( on NLS growth and brine shrimp)

    When I feed them, I have to make sure they do eat as neither of them can see very well.

    ( thus the reason they are in my tetra & corydora tank at 6 months old)

    Although very pretty, these little guys have been quite the worry and work...not to mention $$$$

    As an animal health technologist with a background in genetics.. IMO I sure do understand why these little guys were culled! :blush:

  2. Congrats on your new baby, he is a beauty!!

    Don't expect him to grow fast .. we have had both of ours for over 6 months now and they are still tiny and in my tetra tank with my corycats :smokey: We have a laugh every time that we tell someone our dempseys and tetras are in the same tank doing well. :thumbs:

  3. yeah well i hope he will eat the peas.

    any other suggestions?

    I bought frozen food made with peas and fed that as a diet to avoid problems .. not sure where you can find it though .. I lived across the country at the time.

    Hope your big guy gets better!
