sorry guys i have no clue abt dats for i have none yet.
BUT, store finally got some after my request. theyre sn name is
datnoides microlepis (sp?) my manager put them on the brackish water all 10 of them. im not quite sure if that species stay in brackish tho.

on the back of my mind i know theyre fresh... pls help asap.
dont worry im doing research on my own at the same time too.
 
hmmmmmm.. thanks dixon! ive read mixed infos on web,
they say they start in brackish but never found anything that theyll require either full brackish or full fresh as an adult,
or if they can live on both... im at lost.

are they gonna be ok in the brackish tank we put them in??
or wud u suggest i put him in a fresh water tank ryt away?
 
indo tigers are 100% fresh water...
 
i believe dats are very tolerant of salt
 
Yea, the first thing to do is make sure they are Indo's. If they are then they are as everyone said, fresh water.

Not sure how good they do in brackish tanks, but i know how good they do in fresh, so I wouldnt put it to the test.

There have been a few people on here with sickness questions about there dat, and ultimatly it was found out they were in brackish tank. Everyone would tell them to move them to fresh, but in none of those cases was it determined that the illness was from being in a brackish set up.

Id tell ur manager to put them in fresh. they MIGHT be ok in brackish but why even try it if they are supose to be in fresh.
