Genus: Cichlasoma, Nandopis,

Size: Males 36" Females 24"

Temprament: Very Aggressive
 

Cichlid Tankmates : Umbriferum, Managuense, Trimaculatum, Beani, it's worth trying any large cichlid...but it really depends on the fish...some will put up with tankmates....others wont have a bar of it....

Non-Cichlid Tankmates : large catfish, large Australian natives, Other large fish.....like above it's worth a try but be ready to remove the fish before there are any fatal incidents.......basically the only criteria a tankmate for a Dovii needs is size and ability to hold it's own..

Water:pH-7 or just under 7 and soft water
