[@ScottMclaughlinJ]

You would do great with these species and really really enjoy them.

[@boostjunkieMike]

Great video. I too also enjoy the Parachromis family. Happy fish keeping.

[@AQUANUT]

Hi Scott that was a good video man you have some amazing footage. There is still 5 though these scientists know nothing hahaha ... You should have reached out i would have gave you the original of that image. Anyways thanks for including where you got the image from, take care guys.

[@emilyvandygriff5162]

Maybe your best video yet. Looking forward to more!

[@ScottMclaughlinJ]

Wow! Means a lot!! Ty for watching.

[@chrisdittmer5502]

Watched this video several times... Thx for making it. Beautiful fish! Very good info 👍

[@roundedrob1483]

Jaguar cichlid is a fish I someday will keep thanks for sharing a top notch video.

[@thirstyrabbittanks2u191]

Rounded Rob top video hay

[@drblack66]

Awesome stuff! The jag footage takes me back to when I was breeding jags 16 years ago... always awesome to watch and some of the best wet pets I've ever kept. See you at Dr Thirsty Mate!

[@dsanford12]

excellent video thank you , very informative , the sequence with the jag and all the fry swimming around its nose was beautiful , well done sir ! just subscribed , thank you take care

[@rob93aquatics]

Now this was some nice footage of them. All the tanks look so healthy and ready for a lot of fry. And I didn't know Jegs have that many fry💪😲🤔

[@Xandoscritters]

Awesome video,man! Hands down the best channel for info and content on these cichlids. I got a baby jag several months ago,great fish. Tried socializing but it was getting nasty,so he/she has their own tank now😂. If I ever have room for one,I’d also love to get a dovii someday. Cheers

[@venustus129]

Beautiful,beautiful cichlids, my personal favourite is the jaguar cichlid , the colours and marking of a mature male are hard to beat ! Love your videos , keep up the good work, best wishes from the uk 🇬🇧

[@deaconenoch3456]

A trick : you can watch series on flixzone. I've been using it for watching loads of movies during the lockdown.

Cathy Russell ty so much for watching and leaving a comment. Hope you will return next week

[@brucecroft3232]

Hey Scott just watched one of your older videos for about the 50th time last week I picked up two Jaguars male and female female about 8 in is mail about 12in beautiful fish can't wait to see if I can get them to breed I put them in a tank with a divider for a little while just to make sure everything is good and I also picked up what I consider a rescue fish guy had a 13 in Novi I don't think he was taking real good care of it so I got it from him for free he is absolutely the most gorgeous beautifulest fish I have in my collection right now I am getting him back to full health by making sure he has nice clean water all the time and plenty of good food to eat he is breathtaking thanks for all the advice on keeping these massive cichlids which I absolutely love and see you soon

[@catfishcave379]

Drat! I was going to add some tender and delicious mutt guppies. Incredible footage at the end of the Jaguars. How big do the female Jaguars get? Fabulous video.

[@ScottMclaughlinJ]

Catfish Cave they get around 9 to 10 inches. Ty for watching

[@zeninsyt]

Your tanks look awesome :)

[@ScottMclaughlinJ]

This year at the Clash you come see them right?

[@zeninsyt]

@@ScottMclaughlinJ Absolutely :)

[@warrendavies1592]

Jaguar cichlid defo my favourite 👍🏼 love the video and info bro 💪🏽

[@dennisruedel]

Nice looking fish and footage! Many years ago, I had a CA/SA tank with a Jaguar, Pike, and Red Devil. The biggest mistake I ever made was giving them live feeder fish. Needless to say, they all eventually got sick. What a fool I was back then. Keep up the great work 👍.

[@AQUAFUNK]

As you know I'm an angel fish type of guy but I love learning about all species and this one was pretty in-depth and it kept my attention for the whole DAMN video 😎👍

[@lukeb1984]

Awsome video Man

[@bryanbodegas7357]

I got a fish for mama around 5 years ago, I didn't realized he was a Jaguar until he has bitten her hands yesterday and I found out its species here, now the pitbull will be living with me due to he got as a rebel as a teenager, congrats for your amazing channel, you got a new sub.

[@everythingfishy1207]

Very good video! Love parachromis, I still think you should do a video on umbees 😁👍

[@gregedgerton3390]

Very good. I agree completely.

[@Buttikoferiii]

My favorite has gotta be Tiger motas. Males and females are absolutely stunning

[@srwordsussecuaces6374]

MORE! Keep sharing the american cichlid passion!

[@tybuddy7110]

Why would you keep a dovii in a 125g when they can get at least 2ft in length a 125 is only 18" wide? I love ur channel I've watched king and queen cichlids for a long time now and I'm a subscriber but I cant sit here and hear you say a 125 can house a dovii long term. Maybe if you stunt its growth but I have a dovii in a 300g and i almost feel itll be to small when he reaches full length... I love you I really do but dovii can get pretty massive

[@ScottMclaughlinJ]

I totally agree. I have 2 Dovii each have their own 150 and 180 gallon tank. They are not full grown yet but I know they will be moved to a 220 (s) soon. My point was to make clear that the Dovii and Jaguars are gonna need at minimum a 6 foot tank. I’m glad you made a comment with this info. I do agree with you. Ty for watching

[@donniewhite1399]

@@ScottMclaughlinJ a 125 gallon is sufficient for 1 or 2 Dovii. Sure they won't get 24-30 inches but they'll get 18+, which is big enough that nothing is going in there with them. I've got a Dovii by himself in a 75 gallon & he's already around 14 inches at 2 years old. I've got a Managuensee by himself in a 90 gallon & he's maxed out his growth at around 16 inches. He's 9 years old. I've got a lot of filtration and current in the tanks that Beef em up pretty quick and they only allow in the tank what the area gives them. They each got a big slate bottom log in the middle of the tank and 1 decent size suction log that they sleep under and that's all they want. If I put anything else in there, they tear it up and send it to the top. Can't put any other fish with em or they'll kill em quick. My Managuensee is the worst. Kill anything I put in there. Even tried putting a 28 inch pleco in with him and by the time I mowed my grass "30 or 40 minutes" he almost killed it. I've got 8 tanks and sometimes you havta work with what the area you've got.

[@kennethtrautmann9177]

Didn't the powers that be recently group the motaguensis in the pot with freddy and loisellei under the name parachromis multifaciatus? I heard of this at OCA extravaganza 2019.

[@ashscichlids7057]

Lovveee this video!! 👍👍

[@selectpet]

So good I had to watch it again 😁

[@quinmallory]

During the intro if u close your eyes it almost sounds like Barry white talking to you bout south American cichlids.

[@jpmartinezexoticfishkeepin4542]

Queen 👑 is so pretty 😍

[@Cichlids23]

Very nice Scott...Dovi are true monsters...

[@ottomattix86]

Loisellei is now Fredicstalli and Fredichstalli is now multifasciatus

[@fishworldcichlidz8241]

Good video my friend. Like# 108

[@tonyseward8509]

By thE way sweet fish room you ask about dream tanks ill take yours lol later

[@kathrinemunk2388]

Yeaa! Big Cichlids!

[@jasonvesagie]

have you kept kurper from south africa . although not entirely legal i put one , about 4 inches , in my convict/blue acara /texan and fire mouth tank and it would of wiped them all out if i didn't get it out in time , only the blue acara didnt make it . Im convinced that kurper will take all those cichlids out . love your videos , new subscriber

[@joemunoz1251]

Dovis are cool 👍

[@drumfromhell]

great vid, i am new in cichlid i´m searching a good book to have advice pics etc… can you recommend some one

[@patrickscott1604]

I got a question if anyone can answer I just bought a loisellei juvenile just want to know how fast do they grow can't find a care video

[@chrismatsko4953]

So hard to choose a favorite parachromis how did you pick scott and why is it your favorite

[@jeroenverzijl8596]

Breeded with managuense, only problem is after my male died and i started again i wont wanne go back because i nev3r find a beautiful fish again

[@Bishop_boxing_opinion]

I have one and man is he getting aggressive and it’s not even half the size of my fish in my tank and he is running the show

[@terryncejacobs1240]

👍🏾👍🏾

[@chadcrotts870]

The videos keep getting better; great job Scott. I again never never kept large cichlids but watching your videos has me thinking about it more and more. I was surprised at the size difference between male and female with the Jaguar and the tigers. Are the ones in your video just younger or do the females in those species stay proportionaly smaller?

[@charlesblair121]

How do I get into showing Dovii

[@jeroenverzijl8596]

yess thx you said wat i always say to stores here in the netherlands and the all say the cant do without live, i breeded mana's and i hade my tank in a combo of a pair mana, a pair mota and a pair wat they (in my eyes false name Green terror)aquendis revulatis that was my fixed tank, only my managuensis trarted setinng egs, i needed to transfer my motas and my green acaras the bottem tank. it was never my ideato start breeding, butt i got befrended with a petstore owner specialized in middle amerika and he said that i hade one of the best looking couples he seen as combo he ask if would breed for his store and well i did not make rich, butt i was costeffective he paid me good prize on a fixes number off fish and the target! I loved them and i will not find a couple like here in holland easy, and they first was luck

[@davidtaber2904]

Parachromis is a genus of cichlids native to Central America. Some species occur in Lake Nicaragua and Lake Managua. Parachromis is Genus not species.

[@dovinedrake6482]

Is this the same as Mr and Mrs wolfy Mr wood has?

[@Buttikoferiii]

Dovine Drake the Dovii yes

[@bobbyheenan99]

Where is the parachromis la ceiba? I owe a 5' female that dominates my 8' male and 6' female red tiger moto
