I doubt, mel, greenterra, ruck fules, mojo, mel, or any other truly respected keeper here, disagrees with it. I mean mel has the Largest dovii on this forum, and he estimates him to be 22-24'' I believe.

well one person said this. and i thought that 26 inches was your "RECORD" and even this person said clearly there was a 25-26 inche in CAPTIVITY.
One thing you dont comprehend very well the site u keep using for reference says 38 was the largest pacu with a picture for fishing not in the world. On the same page the largest size they have recored without a picture is 43 inches. I was the one shooting the video and the pacu and the dovii were never at a good angle to compare size. You are so excited by this fishing website people net fish much larger than the ones fisherman catch. That site has the largest MARBLE GOBY with a picture at 7lbs and i know of fish farms that have had gobys 2-3 times that size that site means nothing unless you are trying to get a world fishing record has nothing to do with the max size of a fish. http://www.fishing-worldrecords.com/scientificname/Parachromis managuensis/show look at the world record jaguar everone here has seen a jag bigger than that one your fishing site means nothing. And for the record i have not once said it was 30 inches i said pushing 30 and i will stand by that because i feel he is at least about 27in but closer to 30 is what i really feel. And i have seen the fish from the top everytime ive been there. ALSO THAT JAG IN THE PIC IS 20 INCHES AND YOU GUYS ARE TRYING TO TELL ME THAT HUGE DOVII IS THE SAME SIZE AS THAT OR 4 INCHES BIGGER.
Don't waste your breath... pckts is so fixated on that website its unreal. Nevermind the same website also quotes bigger but not photographed. He also refuses to accept that anything can be verified unless there is photographic evidence. Obviously absolutely nothing happened before the invention of the camera!?

I usally don't like getting in these shouting matches but pckts you don't have a clue what you talking about, you keep screming these world records that you found on the internet,a record is just documentation of what has not yet been seen better, so its a strong chance that the day that person got the record for that 26" dovii that there was another fisherman up stream in Costa Rica that caught a 32" dovii but he didn't take pictures or call any body he took it home to feed he's family witch is more important then any record, what that been said if you have not ever own a 20" or bigger cichlid you don't have a clue of what they look like in person so you would be quick to say they are smaller cuz in your head they only get 26" an another thing who cares what them other people think "the names" you threw out you made your self look bad, I don't have a problem with any of them but they are not the only people well respected in this hobby and what they think about fish sure don't change any fact of the fish trade. So agin just my opinion that male dovii is pushing 30"
Who cares? It's a beast. Let's leave it at that.

Guys, relax, I'm used to dealing with large things. After looking in my pants and watching the videos, I've come to the conclusion it's def 30 inches. 100%. Fact.
