Fish Folk Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) For a miniature peaceful alternative to the Jack Drmpsey Cichlid, try out the Banded Sunfish (Enneacanthus obesus). They are peaceful and beautiful… Enjoying life with Rainbow Shiners and Rainbow Darters. Go NANF!!! Edited June 2, 2022 by Fish Folk 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tihshho Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 IME the Electric Blue JD's happen to be a little smaller and peaceful compared to the standard variety. I've kept them in the past as a centerpiece with small fish without an issue. When I first learned about this I was skeptical, but it seemed to have been either luck or just the demeanor of the EB line. That said, who doesn't like a Sunfish! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_G Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 This is one of those fish that make me wonder about taxonomy and why we have a separate family for Cichliformes instead of putting them all under Perciformes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
