Description: Dusky Jaws are a hardy species of jaw fish originating from the Caribbean. They do grow to 6", and can eat small invertebrates. They do eat all prepared foods. Dusky Jawfish should be kept in an aquarium 30-gallons or larger, depending on specimen size. They should not be kept with other species of jawfish. The aquarium should have an established, one-inch sand bed. A tight-fitting lid is required as this fish may jump out of the aquarium.
