Hey look, my Dovii is bigger than I thought.

[D-Train]

Yeah, you called it bro. I didn't want to stress the hell out of him by taking him out of the tank but I had to know for sure how big he's gotten. It's all good though, he's already trying to kill me thru the glass again.

Pay back. Hes like "I *****N DARE YOU TO PUT YOUR HAND IN HERE BI*CH!!" hahaha

Unreal dovii.

I hate when people say their fish is much larger than it really is, much better to under estimate a little than to over estimate IMO.

Lets see some more pics too

very nice balton. how long have you had him for again. i can't remeber

would be good to know a yearly growth rate on a dovii already 12"

He's grown about 2.75" in 7 months so growth rate is approximately .39" per month. Less than a 1/2" per month is pretty slow growth. Closer to a third of an inch monthly than a half. I guess that's why I didn't notice it was growing at all lol.

Thats probably normal for most fish that reach that size

Definitely a very nice specimen you have there

I was tempted to snatch him out the tank, but you never left me alone and I didn't want to lose a finger or three

The festae I got from you are settled in good. The female is coloring up nicely and have even put on a few ounces and they are starting establish their area in the tank. My GT used to be the one that picks on everyone, he thinks twice when in the are of the Festae hahahaha
