Well, I've currently own 5 male Dovii's and have finally decided on which one I'm going to keep! This is the one I got from Don Conkel a couple of months ago.... he's finally settled in and his colors have finally come out (not to mention he's not as shy!). What do you guys think? Photography isn't great.... I took about 60 pictures, he wouldn't sit still and the acrylic tank is kinda scratched up.

He's a beaut! I wish I had the space for one of those beasts of the water.

He's nice man, I can see why you don't want to sell this guy. Are the others from Conkel? Got any other pics of the other doviis?

Thanks guys.... no other picture of the other Dovii's just yet. The one pictured seemed to have a lot more pattern on his gill plate and face! Shows quite a bit of yellow/gold on the body with more blue/green on his fins/tail. Pictures do not do him justice!

Nice choice Sean! Mike
Thanks Mike..... I think I'm going to find new homes for the ones I got from you. Just too many now and I need to minimize my tanks.
A couple more pictures:
