Future beast of a Dovii

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks for the feedback guys
He is a little over 6" but at the rate he is eating his high protein sticks, im sure he will be putting on mass soon.

And yes I agree very intelligent fish

I always thought the same way!
I believe the dovii is a very unique cichlid, especially when comparing to its other parachromis cousins.

Some always confuse freddys with loiselles, or even RTM. The Dovii and the Jag have their own unique attributes that set them apart from other cichlids.

Personally, I like their bright blue colors and personality more so than the other parachromis that I have kept.

I definitely think the Jag is much more like RTM, Loiselles and Freddies compared to the Dovii which has more of a snout and longer body.
 
Looks like a real S disturber lol! Awsome colours.

Thank you
He actually disturbs (glass bangs) so much that the light stresses him out when on for too long, and it seems that I can't capture his blues too well on camera with the lights on, or the picture simply doesn't do him much justice...

A quick update, pushing around 8"

2"growth in less than a month?what exactly are you feeding him?

YFS high protein carnivore sticks and FD krill. He eats in bulk, and being a hardy fish I have no worries in feeding him as so ;)
You can see in that pic compared to my original post that he has gotten thicker and is putting on mass fairly quick

However it doesn't come down to his diet alone, he is an F1 w/ presumably good genetics and I perform weekly water changes and excellent filtration/oxygenation as well as add liquid pro-biotics to the tank as a digestive-aid and assist in disease prevention.

May seem as over-kill to some, but it has been working for me not just with this dovii but previous "potentially-big" cichlids I have owned such as the Rio-Mag or my butti.
