I just picked this little guy up from the pet store. I'm new to dats but have done lots of reading and research so I (kinda) know what I'm getting into. This guy was just labelled at the fish store as tiger datnoid but the guy had no idea which specific one it was. He will stay in my 35g growout until he hits around 4" then I will move him to a 75. I was told he's already on pellets so fingers crossed on that one.

It'd be great if he is eating pellets and hopefully it will show its pattern once it settles down.

I had a hunch it was an indo. But being new I wasn't sure. He seemed pretty stressed out at the pet store. He was in a tank with like 40 baby Senegals that were constantly bumping into him. Hopefully he feels more at home in the 35. He has 2 tankmates ATM. An Ansorgii and an endli Bichir both are pretty small. Like 3" and he's around 2"

Only been in the tank a couple hours and his bars are starting to show a lot more. This is one of the few fish I have that my girlfriend actually likes. I think it's his lost puppy looking eyes that does it. She thinks he's just adorable.
