I see two red flags: hybridization and dovii killing everything if they pair up.

Actually, reading your signature you probably don't care about the hybrid thing.

if it works great and if it doesnt have fun with your dovii

 

[ROCKY-101]

haha yea the hybrid thing i dont care so much about id juss give em or sell em to my friend that collects hybrids and the dovii will be staying in the 125 once he starts to be a prick to the others lol

 

[surfpalmsncycads]

wow and i thought i had some rediculous set ups. as previously posted, enjoy your dovii lol

Your fish bro, have fun with that. I guess if it's way overstocked, it will help.

 

[parachromisownr]

maybe you should run a book on how long it's gonna be before the dovii's kill the rest

Its going to be a very intresting tank especially when they start growing, thats if they last that long.

Good Luck.

Thanks Darren.

theyre all doing really good and just to say that the dovii isnt the most aggressive in the tank atm so far its the freddys lol shocker right if anything the dovii hides alot and will only come out during feeding time, its a great dovii tho, yellow dovii been lookin for 1 for a while now still looking for more parachromis if any1 is selling 1-2 inchers
