Are doraodos the same as brycon?

They are simalar, bigger, more aggresive and predatory. They eat brycons.

Great fish.

I am currently building a very simalar sized fish house and setting up pretty much the same setup. 8' -3' -3' for mine.

I have had to separate mine because as soon as they hit 5" they turned on each other. My plan will involve getting either more dorado or some brycons to reduce the focused aggresion on any one fish.

could you tell me where you got them:)
