And if you think a dovii's power is intense, try netting a 30" goliath (not that you can net one, as it will eat a hole threw it, but you get the point)...not like I have netted one but... :grinno: Maybe to Plecostic this is the biggest fish hes ever netted and he was surprised at the oscars strength...I bet he knows there are fish that are more powerful and put up a bigger fight. I don't think he meant oscars are the strongest fish and put up the biggest fight than any other fish

A goliath is not even a cichlid did you know that?And 30" Goliath? Ya everyone has one of those lol! I was Talking Pound for Pound that dovii are much more intense and have way more power then most cichlids! I wasn't comparing a 24 inch dovii to a 12 inch oscar.
 
LoL 8" oscars is a huge fish?

I had an 8" female dovii, she wasn't anymore or less powerful then any other 8" SA/CA cichlids that I've netted.

Female and males are completely different. All im saying is I have kept alot of SA/CA for a long time. Last year I got my first dovii's I moved one at about 8 inches, if you dont catch him at first chance his first instinct is to swim like a bullet to the surface full speed which he knocks him self out. once in the net I could really feel the force and my arm bouncing, Thats at 8 Inches I cant imagine you guys with big monster Dovii!

I didnt mean to derail this thread I just wanted to let the OP know that ya SA/CA cichlids are bad ass and that IMO Dovii are more of a power house then most. If someone stated that to me I would be thinking damn I want one of those Dovii.
