Parachromis read

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Good read...thanks duanes!
 
Interesting.

"Parachromis dovii is a different matter altogether. To put it bluntly: this species is totally unfit for the aquarium."
 
Thanks Duane, that was a really good read. Very interesting info on the genus.
Another thing I thought was interesting is what the author said about tank size-6' aquarium is small for a loisellie and dovii is not suited for an aquarium period. And he had a 14' tank.
 
I'm sure many MFK members will take issue with the authors tank size conclusions, but one has only to look at the many posts found in this south central category with the plethora of aggression problems, and/or HITH etc, etc, to see the author is taking a more realistic view of how these magnificent fish should be housed.

I agree w/ 99% of it, Duey. Just cracking a joke, that's all
