Dovii

2 to 3 inches.

Dovii is offered as live freshwater livestock. Review the adult space, feeding, and compatibility requirements below before ordering.

Care Requirements

• Scientific Name: Parachromis dovii
• Adult Size: large males can exceed 24 inches
• Temperature: 76–82°F
• pH: 7.0–8.0
• Water Hardness: moderate
• Tank Size: Very large custom aquarium or suitably contained pond; plan around 300 gallons or more for a large adult
• Temperament: Extremely territorial predator
• Setup: Plan a broad adult footprint, strong filtration, secure cover, and protected equipment before purchase.
• Diet: Large carnivorous-cichlid pellets with suitable aquatic frozen foods.
• Compatibility: Solitary housing is safest. This is not a normal community cichlid, and juvenile size is misleading.

Use a fully cycled aquarium, stable water conditions, and regular water changes. Plan space for the animals as they grow.
