I've seen them also called electric blue jack dempsey. Nandopis Octofasciatus

Electric Blue Jack Dempsey for sure.

I agree. Moved this thread to FW General Discussion.

Nice looking fish. My LFS has been carrying them off and on for some time and this last time I noticed them in with some gourami, lol. Very attractive fish.

i was hoping that they were more peaceful(before i knew they were JDs). But their ad worked, seeing that beautiful fish made me want to go to liveaquaria! lol

They also usually run upwards of $25.00 for babies, $40 and up for adult specimens.

well, i would pay that much... if i has an agressive SA setup. I would gladly pay that much for such a beautiful fish.
