dovii and 5 spot jewels??

[justarn]

hey all been thinking of designating my 300 to a large colony of 5 star generals and my pair of dovii, what you think?? my dovii have been socialized since young and are still currently small at 8 and 6 inches... if i get the jewels soon do we think this could work??? really liking the idea of it? here are some nice examples of the jewels im after and my dovii.View attachment 878714

hmmm might work for a while but i dont see this working in the long run, dang your female dovii is beast!

lol cheers dude, she's a don conkle fish... these jewels are pound for pound the meanest cichlid in the world some say so if any dither will work it will prob be these right? i never realised how pretty a nice one can be either, till i googled it today! i was thinking normal red dwarf jewels and a butti pair a while back but ive now sold my butti and the dovii are breeding so after reading about these badboys got thinking.... really really wanna do this atm!

Cheers jag, she looks very characterful in this pic, love it... Missus took that one aswell!

if you ever have aggression from the doviis i would give the male away and keep the female... feamles are much more peaceful and a little smaller plus it won't be breeding and won't be as aggressive... this is only if you ever have aggression problems tough...

 

[justarn]

my female is worse than my male atm!!! lol... your right tho, males can go nuts... thats why i keep my fish socialised, imo keeping fish alone makes them aggressive, like leaving a dog alone in a yard all its life then throwing another in... only exception being piranha they are stone cold killers with a never ending hunger lol!

heres a few pics, ive got a couple of leads on aquiring these here in the uk... theres one store that doesnt post but ive got them considering, if that fails theres a guy doing a rapps order at the end of the month!-)

Having a colony of 5 Stars as dithers for your Dovii sounds like a great idea...you might need some dithers for your 5 Stars tho...
