I'm planning to upgrade to a 360 or 450g 3ft wide tank one day. I love dats and I want to have a community of at least 5 12" dats one day.

I read here on the forums that NTT are the most peaceful big dats. Could I keep 5 big 12"+ ones without any aggression problems you think? What if I kept 4 NTT with a big IT or NGT. What other types of big dats could I keep that would probably be safe to keep together with some big NTTs?

It depends on the individual fish as some thinbars can be aggressive as any of the other dat species.As for your proposed tank a three foot tank would be an awesome home for a group of them but you'd probably have at least one troublemaker lol.

There's usually always one in the bunch like KRich said. I've never had any damage between any one of my dats, all they do is chase each other and do that stupid thing where the stiffen up and open their mouths lol. I don't see it being an issue no matter what kinds you keep.
