wat i mean buy chillers is they dont like fluctuations. dorado or dolphin fish is a slatwater species which i would class as thee best coloured fish in the world
this is the dorado he's refering to.. not the saltwater one.. should be fine with no chiller..

When small thay grow very quickly.

I had two at about 3", they easily put on over an inch a month. They are about 9" now and have slowed slightly. You will be safe to assume an inch a month.

cool.... ok then for nice fast moving water how would i do that ya think, people that have owned them tell me your setups....

for that 180 how would i start... like 2 AC110s on the same side with full flow, or like a side pump across the top...?

as far as putting it in with payara, mine is only 6" and won't let anything in the tank with it. but as we all know fish are individuals.
