Why are you guys arguing over sizes? Face is you, me and everyone on here don't know the size of this dovii. Under water and with a thick glass everything is magnify. You can easily estimate a fish in a home aquarium because it's right there and the glass is thinner then 2". You can't guess a fishes size under a magnifying glass so why sweat it.

You dont just see it through a glass u can go upstairs and look directly down in the water at it. I have a 2 foot fish at home and looking at this fish through the glass and directly in the water he looks bigger than my fish. Everyone has different guesses my problem was with the guy who never saw the fish in persons and says its impossible because a fishing website told him so. I have recently spoke with someone at the zoo and she wants me to send her a email so she can forward it to someone to get a acurate measurment so im done with this thread unless i get a answer back.

Some people has to think, sometimes living things grower larger then there suppose to be. If you we're to ask any one in the 1800 if human are capable of reach 7ft, they'll say you're crazy. But does it happen yeah all the time now. Record breaking fish doesn't mean it's the max for the fish, it just mean its the largest ever written down.

This is at the National Zoo (Amazonia Exhibit).

The National Aquarium in Baltimore is huge and open (just did a big renovation). The smaller National Aquarium branch (in DC...in the Department of Commerce building) is closing.

I heard that the national aquarium is closing? what are they going to do with all of the fish?

The record fish was 13 lbs these people have caught fish over 18 lbs everyone doesnt fish for records.
