Madness's 210 gal and WC Dovii

Subject: Madness's 210 gal and WC Dovii Wed Aug 31, 2011 9:57 am

Here are a couple more videos. The 1st one is of my Parachromis tank, starring my beautiful female RTM's, LaCieba Freddies, F1 CostaRican Gold Dovii, F2 Carpintis Escondido, Red Texas, the Blythe Loaches and others. With a guest appearence from my mated pair of jags and my about to spawn, UMBEE!!!! The 2nd video is of my WC pair of Nic Dovii, with the male beginning is spawning routine. Hopefully I can get that on video. Smile

Nice, keep up the good work!

I had debated on a single big fish for my 210g and the Umbee or Dovii were the logical choices. This tank is in my living room and I really wanted a community of larger fish instead of a single huge wet pet, but I still get that cold chill when I see a big male dovii, they actaully scare me a little.

Oh ya. When he has fry, he is very intimidating. affraid

I have a friend that bought a 240 gal w/sump and is giving it to me to use for about a year until he and his wife buy a house. So the Dovii will be going in that, and maybe I will put something in the vacant tank or just leave empty. Who knows, the 240 needs cleaned and plumbed. So it may be a little while.

Thanks again, I am going to have to take new still photos of them and post them. Especially once they get into their new 240 gal. They will be oooooo sooooooo happy. Hug

His dovii are the reason I want a big tank.

Dude I love your fish, I feel like I need to come and see your tanks like once a week for inspiration. You have so many fish that I have wanted for years, but never had space for. I envy you sir, world class cichlid keeper, nothing but bruisers and brutes, and you do it well. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you very much VW. Very Happy

I am really enjoying the stock that I have. The Dovii will be getting their final home here in the next couple weeks. Going to set up the 240 gal thats been in the back yard waiting. Its time for them to get a bigger tank anyway.

Thanks Fishman and Stierwalt, I appreciate the kind words.

That picture is of one of my Freddies. I have the 2 La Cieba's and the 2 regulars. I love the yellow color on the Regs much better than the La Cieba's. But th La Cieba's are more sought after.
