Dovii or Peacock bass???

Dovii = common cichlid to me...

If you have dovii's any chance you can post up a pic? What type do you keep Costa Rican or Nicaraguan?

Keep the bass!

Why? What makes the bass better than the dovii?? I want people who have had experience keeping either one of the two fish to give me their reasonsand help me make up my mind to why I should choose one and not the other

stated for Dovii, tank to small. I have a 180 tank, no not my only. I would not think of keeping a Dovii in it, 240 min for a Dovii. IMHO.

A 10cm bass sell for $150 a pop here and a 10cm dovii sell any price from $35-50 and they rarley come through the lfs. I have been waiting almost 4yrs for a lfs to get doviis in my city.

How big is your dovii?

I do not have one, I do not have a big enough tank for one. thought I had made that clear. If not I am sorry, my mistake. I do keep jags. I have the tanks for that.
