I have two indo dats in my 120 for a while now. At first, one was 10inch that i name "O" for its pattern while the other is a regular three bar at 7 inch.. since then, they are almost same size.

but damn, last couple weeks, the fighting got so bad u can hear them bite each other. luckily torn fins/scrapes was not too crazy. they are only aggressive to each other and not other fish. i just temp divided the tank for untill they are both heal.

question is, should i get another datnoid at their size to spread the aggression out?

If anything you should get three more about the same size to ease out the aggression. Getting one more datnoid the same size would spread out the aggression, but more would be better.
