Nice

[Redevilz]

Cool fish!

That last photo is amazing!

[malawiman85]

Yep great shots. Jack jr. looks awesome.

[ice]

Great shots babe!

The little bugger is developing well and growing fast. Very well fed as can be seen by his giant belly

Can't wait to see how the yellow fins develop and if it actually a jack or another one of the euryhaline lutjanus species.

hes a fatty.....

haha nice looking fish too........

 

make him grow quicker already!!

[ice]

Haha its all up to him at this stage hes getting the best food i can get into him and hes always got a fully belly

 

There's still two little healthy jacks at Aquotix @ $220 ea if anyone has a big spare tank and wants an awesome fish.

[malawiman85]

Hey Ice, how big is your new jack now?

[ice]

Hey man not too sure exactly but I would say just scraping into 5cm territory. Very good condition on the little dude though Already an agro little bugger!

[malawiman85]

I love the big angry natives! I bought one from over east today, cant wait to get the little bugger.
Yours still got the yellow fins?

[ice]

Surprised you didn't grab one from Aquotix? Yeah he's still rocking the yellow fins. Looks like they are here to stay

Should be interesting to watch him grow and see what happens with his colouration!

I wanted one from aquotix, especially after seeing pics of the one you got but with no license aquotix may as well be in Afghanistan at the moment. Sorry Ollie

[ice]

Fair enough mate, wont you have to drive out to the airport to pick it up anyway though?

 

How big is it?

[Jules]

Aquotix still had a small one, 3cm odd when I was there on the weekend, such an evil looking little fish

[malawiman85]

advertised as 5 - 6cm $142.00 couriered to my door. The jack was $120, delivery is free, $22 for the quarantine inspection. Last time I paid for quarantine inspection it was about $56 so the $22 is a bargain. All fish are guaranteed on arrival.
As long as its in reasonable health when it gets here, ill be happy.
Ive been wanting one for so long, cant wait! Looking for a young jardini now.

Thought they only had bigger ones @ $220. There was one on gumtree... might still be there @ $500 think it was about 20cm from memory.

[ice]

Better off starting off small mate Looking forward to seeing the little dude!

[bigjohnnofish]

always good to have a fish from fry size... like getting a new puppy.... and a dog should be for life - same as the fish

[malawiman85]

Totally agree, well with big fish anyway.

Make sure you apply to Fisheries to get that Translocation Permit or they'll confiscate it
