  • dovii!!!

    after years of keeping dovii but never successfully breeding them,i came home tonight and found my pair had laid eggs everywhere!
    i bought 5 wild caught dovii and lost one male so i was down to 4 and bang got a pair.
    this is a huge deal for me as it took me years to even find some nice wild caught ones
    on a side note,i bought 3  4 inch ruby red oscars and 2 6-7 inch commons again not a big deal fish but i have always loved them oscars
    after keeping some of the most exotic and rare central/south americans they are by far my favorite,as far as personality goes.
    there just like having some more dogs running around the house.
    now if i could get a couple black belts or synspilum  id be all set.

            hey man congrats on the fry

            by the way, would a pair of dovii be ok in my 125g by themselves?
            and could i keep an oscar with a synspilum, black belt, and a large male nicaraguense in my 75g?

                  What is a dovii? :)

                  I'm trying to look it up and can't find it anywhere.  Could you give the scientific name?

                        a pair in a 125 would be tight fit.they would be ok for a short time however i would recommend a bigger tank 180 maybe a 150 but mine will go into  a 300 before to long.
                        the rest however will fit in the 75 ok.
                        as far as looking up dovii do a serch here on this site ive got a ton of pics under dovii and friends in the south american forum
