i havent had a dovii, but its hard to think that pound for pound it would be more aggressive than a convict. its easy to be aggressive when you are bigger than everyone else. i think its completely different when a fish will dominate other fish double its own size. thats why i say convict.

Put a neet into the tank with the convict. See what happens. They are both the same size. Convicts are heavier.
 
I had a 15" + Midas that would attack ANYTHING in or near his tank. He would splash about even if the dogs walked by it. He attacked gravel vac's and would kill any fish near living with him. He was fearless. I have never experienced a fish more aggresive than him. He considered the whole room the tank was in "his" room.
 
midas,devils,umbee,dovii,jags,trimac,festae etc,they can all be really nasty or fairly even temperament it's all down to the individual really
 
Yah, I'm with Jordanlewis100 on this. It depends on the fish itself and maybe it's size also. I had a 4" female red devil that ruled a 110 gallon community tank. I also have a 10" Hartwegi that whoops on a 135 gallon.
