American Tiger fish -aka- Datnioides polota

[Masta Flan]

Anyone have a picture of this fish in their tank? I am quite curious about this fish since it is described as a "black and white/silver" dat. I did quite a few searches and I am not impressed. Btw, I am looking for a real picture of it in someone's aquarium and not just a drawing or a baby picture. Also, how hard are these suckers to come by since the majority have the indo or the ngt.

thanks.

VVateverzYo, what place did you go to? I've been looking for Indos or an NTT and all my lfs has is silvers.

If you're looking for silvers and willing to travel, there is a store called Zoo Creatures in Plaistow, NH that has a tank full of 4-5" silver dats. Not sure on the price though.
