Dovii tank mate

[Dominator]

i have a male carpintis and unsexed kkp, i wonder if a dovii will do ok with them and is it possible for a dovii to break 75g glass?

Uhh....... Lemme approach this question one step at a time.

1st, Any fish big enough to break a 75, shouldn't be in a 75.
2nd, Any fish small enough to live in a 75, yet strong enough to break it and aggressive enough to try will DESTROY, anything else in the tank with it.
So, with that being said: yes, the 'dovii will do ok with them'

chances are dovi will kill them!
75 DUDE THAT is too small for a dovi
a single male dovi needs atleast a 300gallon IMo if you want tankmates with it 180Gallon without

forgot to say, im just going to keep it until it reaches 14in.

thank god..
it might work
it might not
it could if the tankmates are a bit larger
but the dovi will outgrow them fast

get a female and try to cross it with your male carpinte.

wont last, might work till the dovii is like 6" or larger, then it will destroy your carpintis

I'm not tryin' to be a ballbuster, but sometimes I do stupid stuff like click on your tank set ups buttons and read your sigs and stocklists - If all you got is 75 gal tanks and all thoose fish, I'd be thinkin' bigger tanks. I gave my Female Dovii away to another MFKer @ 9" she was a real bastard and deserved a mate and a large tank. Maybe someday I'll get a Dovii pair myself but when I do I'll do it right with at least 300 gal. of water and no expectations of tankmates. IMO- Dovii are true monster fish.

Anybody have any knowledge of a fish EVER breaking a 75 gallon or similar sized tank?

I do not think so, a fish would kill itself long before the tank broke.
