Hey guys, I picked these guys up today because I rarely see them in LFS.

Any ideas what they are? They don't have the gold/bronze color. Was told that they are thin bars.

If they are thin bars, shouldn't they have a little more gold/bronze on them? Could they by American Datnoids? They are about 1 inch.

Sorry, not the best pics I know.

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick response. So does the color come in later or are they unstable?!

Or are they gonna be silver and not gold/bronze?

Sorry, new to datnoids :)

Looks to be unstable but once they adjust to there surrounding they should be stable. Once they put some size on then there colors should come out more.
I am still learning about datnoids aswell :D

Not necessarily true. Once Indos get used to surrounding, they can and do go unstable.
You never really know. It's 50/50

Might take 1 year to go stable, or after 1 year of being stable, they might go unstable.

So is the instability due to water chemistry, nutrient, etc. Or something else?

Use search function.. It would take too long to reply in 1 post. (I mean no offence by saying) 😉

This is the most talked about subject in datnioide forum. Some really good discussions.
