You have a very nice fish.

I've only had 2. Both I found in Ontario.

My first I got 1996 from Scott Goddard when he owned AA Pet store on Upper Ottawa in Hamilton. It was 12.7 cm/5 inches and cost $10. HPIM0345.JPGWhen it was killed in 2009 it measured 60cm/22". It was in the 15kG/56kL tank which is 6 feet deep. The ray is 24" in width. The drain is a swimming pool drain about 14cm/5 1/2". HPIM0399.JPGBob Wright the President of CAOAC took the pics in 2007.

My second is still alive and I got it in 2004 at 17.8cm/7" from Dave at DJ's Tropics onParkinson road in Woodstock. It is now about 43cm. It's swimming at around the 5 foot depth of my 9 foot deep 52kG/196kL tank. The shoal of Paraneetroplus synspila numbers possibly about 60 (It once was 150) and the larger males are around 35cm. The picture was taken in Feb 2011 100_6938.JPGpossibly by Rusty Wessel (He was at my house at the time and took several pics as did other mfk members).

Incredible Fish! I could only imagine have a tank that large to house my fish. What killed your first Dovii?
