ComfortablyNumb, Jaguars just look mean. They swim cool, and collected, with a mean swag to them. CravinMorehead, in order to catch either species, you have to make your way to South Fl. Central Fl, is way to North for them.

I know, my sister lives in Miami, so I might have to take a trip down there haha

My Dad and I used to always keep aquarium fish, mostly cichlids. One day my Dad brought home a 10" jaguar cichlid the pet store gave him for free. They said it didn't get along with anything and the previous owner brought it in. My Dad put it in his 125. It already had a few central American cichlids like a big red devil, a few I don't remember and a few convicts that constantly spawned (they always do, mean little buggers too). He named the jaguar " Dale Earnhardt" the intimidator. This was before the racer's death. Within five minutes Dale had everything in the tank pinned to one side hiding in the rocks and it stayed that way for a couple weeks. Usually they settle in but it was clear the was Dale's tank and he wasn't going to share it with anyone. Out of frustration my Dad put Dale in a 55 with two full grown red bellied piranha. I already knew what would happen but I stayed quiet. The next morning there were two red bellied piranha floating belly up in the tank and Dale didn't even have a scratch on him. That 55 became Dale's tank.

Brad H. Great story. Thanks. Yeah, they are scrappy, and mean looking. I would be terrified if I was in his tank also. LOL.
