Datnoid keepers

Dats look better than tropheus trolol

[eklikewhoa]

trophs are ugly too but a different kind of ugly.

Character wins though... and from what I'm reading about dats, there's very little character.

I thought these were brackish water fish?

[rgonzales]

You guys mustve never seen giant dats in person. Dats arent ugly to me. Looks like a fw grouper

The only ones found in brackish are AT and even those cam be kept im fw tanks

[eklikewhoa]

They look more like a Calvus from a different region... and the spikey top fins remind me of a scat which is why I like these.

the fish eating part is just a plus for me.

As soon as I brought these two home and did the water change I noticed two more of my big females packing a mean pouch so in a months time it's gonna be a free for all!

Those spikes hurt when you move them by hand. Lol. Also you'll learn dats have personality and are pretty smart too

[eklikewhoa]

I'm kinda worried with their size right now they won't get much food when I release them into the main tank and really worried that the trophs is gonna assrape them cause they eat odd looking slow swimmers.

Yea size may be a problem right now. Oh and to the socal thing on mfk who cares its all on who you know. Lol

[eklikewhoa]

oh that's fo damn sure!

Just saying it's easier to come by though.. but then again it wouldn't be as interesting or cool to me if everyone and their momma had them. Guess that's why I've kinda lost interest in the trophs thing.

I think thats why i never could get into trophs. I really want flat spotted stingy tail fish now. Lol

[eklikewhoa]

The troph thing was cool when I first got into it and no one could keep them alive, then the variant I had wasn't as common at the time so it was cool, I think the only reason I am got back into keeping them now was the fact that myjohnson was able to get my m'toto colony into his possession and offered them back to me. No one else has this variant and surely don't see them being imported ever but the novelty has worn thin otherwise.

I wants a pancake fishie too! I think if I can move some of my rocks out I would have sufficient space for one to sit in one spot I might take a little roadtrip and find me one or two....
