Dovii upgrade

[Jacolby]

Trying to figure out if I want to put my dovii pair in my new 250 gallon?? If I do what tank mates would you suggest? Male is between 12-13" from gage and female is 5" from jeff (the juvenile dovii you see are from him and my last female unfortunately he killed her after a water change. Right now there in a 125 gallon

this is the 250 gallon. I had it setup for some Africans but unsure if I wanted to put some.

A pair would eventually wipe out everything so I'd say nothing you want to keep alive or in one piece

lol no tank mates, another female dovii, everything will get slaughtered

A dovii pair will kill everything in the tank
You could keep a female dovii in a community, I have a friend that has two 8-9" females in his community 240 gallon...
Or you could keep a single male in a community... but it is a gamble... I wouldn't recommend it... but it is working for me with my friends 14" male that is in my 240 community temporarily as I stated in your previous thread...

Yes I'd move them into your 250g. Tank mates will not be tolerated. Give the female a nice heavy hiding spot she can get away from the male. More room the better.

You'll just be wasting time/money with tank mates. Give it time a 20"+ will make that 250g look like a 55g.
