dovii setup

[noidea]

I was thinking about setting up a tank for one dovii. How big of a tank should I get and what type of filtration should I use?

 

[rallysman]

180 with a wet/dry

 

[noidea]

Does it have to be wet-dry?

 

[rallysman]

nope. any filtration would be fine as long as there is enough of it.
wet/dry would be the easiest/most effective IMO though.....




By the way , WELCOME TO MFK!

A right.
You said 180 gal. for one. Would a 250 work for two or could I go smaller and would a 150 work for one dovii or is 180 as small as I should go?

 

[rallysman]

I think a 150 would be ok for a female, 180 for a male(for life/max size). A 250 may be good for a pair, and you may even be able to get by with something smaller. I only go by what I've read, but I'm sure that someone will step in with real life experience.

You don't have real life experience...darn. I'm tring to get away with the smallest tank possible. I was hopping a 90gal. would work for one but I guess I'l have to keep saving up or go with something else.

Any information on a tank set up for this fish is still wanted.

for a Dovii a 90 would work for a while, but not for life (especially if you have a male)
