My past experiences with Dovii aggression are ok, they are not the meanest as they claim. I say artc are the elite top fish. It's like kill kill kill.

I've had very docile dovii during growouts. Unless breeding or having a specific enemy I've had them coexist peacefully to about 12". At that time I've lost large cichlids. But I have had a male dovii for years not care about small cichlids in there as long as there was no temptations to breed.

Yes sir! This guy here does not tolerate any I mean any tankmates at all. His scars are not from other fishes but constant banging himself to get to the other side. He did once broke through and killed and had the rest all up in the top corner within hours. It's all up to the individual, I seen a 20" at lfs that lives peacefully with in a community.
