Your Dovii must have been inbred or something . Was it tank raised or wild caught? I can't see a brreding pair being taken by anything let alone any arrowana. I have a wild caught male at 16 inches and he does everything you said the red does. Just the other day I tried to fend him off with a cleaning brush while trying to put back an inlet tube he ripped the brush out of my hand and swallowed the bristle end then spit it back out. I don't see anything taking a 30 inch wild caught Dovii. All the nonsense on here is just that, anybody can make it up as they go along so I don't believe what I don't see. Anyone have videos of a 20 to 30 inch Dovii getting owned? I don't think so. I can make up a story that my Dovii killed a 20 inch red S/H. But can I prove it with a video?

My old red killed every thing that was put in the tank with it! As you so rightly said I can only say what I have seen I have a Dovii ok it’s a female but she is not a ½ as bad as my red. The thing with Red Snakeheads is it a hard fish. They can survive out of water cross from one pond to another. My one would eat 2 fish every day but you put in 4 it would eat them. They are Nasty full stop. They will kill for the sake of it even if not hungry. It just gets down to first bite the Cichlid might do a bit of gill flaring but the snakehead wont :swear: about he will just nail it. I do agree a Dovii is a tough fish but lets see who can survive out of water longer

Exactly, that's what happened when I put a dovii in with my striata. Mean channas are not interested in bullying, territorial disputes and gill flaring, they are interesting in killing.

The dovii flared up and tried to lip lock the channa, and the channa simply grabbed it by the face SNAP, real quick and shook it violently.

An oscar and a Dempsey? Those are baby fish compared to what we are talking about. Please don't tell me you think an oscar and dempseys are tough?

Any videos? I didn't think so. Show me the video of a 20 to 30 inch Dovii getting owned by any size snakehead you want. Otherwise this is all baloney. I have had a 24 inch Cobra snakehead and have a 16 inch Dovii. I also had a red S/H who got to 10-1/2 inches before the cobra killed him. So am very familiar with both species.
