Dovii Breeding ?

Yes we do. You put a male and a female dovii in the same tank and, surprise! Surprise! They paired up. We get it. It doesn't matter if you meant for it to happen or not. That's not the issue. The issue is that of diluting the dovii gene pool by mixing TWO DIFFERENT STRAINS that have DIFFERENT CHARACTERISTICS. If you do let them breed, do not let them out of your tanks. Please.
Perhaps there needs to be.hghlndr85;3914293; said:
The issue is not as simple as one may think.
If you put a male and a female dovi in a tank, what did you think would happen, a house party?
Fish reproduce, it is wired into their system. It is not for pleasure in a fish, it is to produce prodigy, which they are trying to do.
Enjoy their behaviour, enjoy the brood itself, just do not let those fish out. We have enough trouble distinguishing between different races, if we start mixing them, oh well. Do the right thing.
Good luck and enjoy your fish. I have said my part.

That dovii male is Costa Rican! I just re-read your original post. I thought you were trying to say 'nice' not 'nic' otherwise I would have corrected you. No worries, you have a Costa Rican pair so long as the female you have is from CR as well.
Now as for the collection point, IDK? Some may say it's of little importance, others would not.

Absolutely, yes. It matters. Rio Higueron dovii are blue and basically resemble those from Nicaragua. Rio Heredia dovii are the gold strain. The two should not be mixed.flowerpower;3914433; said:
