Hmm maybe I know him since I’ve been around here for 15 years too lol. Yeah people come and go or are on other platforms. You should ask him to send you a vid cause that would clear things up. Make me a believer Wrinkle.
I’ll ask him. He also said there are ST breeding in a lake with IT in Malaysia and these are called MT I think?
Well these ST lookalikes are coming from somewhere. Someone is breeding them….
I know little of datnoids, but i know people. Ive always suspected the rumors that ST were extinct in the wild were marketing ploys, designed to drive up prices of an already exclusive fish. Its always smacked of hubris (to me, anyway) that people think themselves of such import that they can so easily wipe out another species. Bah, humans....
Only thing that will ever solve anything about these fish is genetic evidence. There will always be someone from another camp claiming its a hybrid, fake, convincing poser. And there will always be shady claims of secret lakes and breeding operations that are so conveniently never confirmed with any evidence. So much cash involved and over what? A difference in stripe patterns?
You dat people are nuts lol
