here's my brand new jag I got a few weeks ago. was very skinny and dark when I got it. I got 2 at the time because I typically try to learn personalities then rehome the other (though normally I get 5 of one fish) first jag got eaten by day 2, I was a bit surprised since they were questionable bite size, but my fish normally wouldn't bother unless they were smaller and are well fed anyways. this poor guy was super beat up and was separated and treated for his wounds and then put back 3 days later but with a divider. I was very confused because I wanted a red eyed jag, and picked the two with the red eyes, but their eyes turned gold, then yellow. now this one's eyes are maroon most of the time. since he seems a whole lot happier, the colors are typically all yellow right now, which I'm not a huge fan of but when it's time to eat, the fins are black and vibrant and the eyes bright. no clue what color variation I'll end up with, but it's still a beautiful fish. already insanely aggressive, it's pretty precious. and yes, prepared to have a species only tank when the time comes
