Datnoids living in harmony??

[Steve_89]

I have the chance to add another monster datnoid to my collection. However im just wondering if the two will live together without any problems.

I know this is a case of trail and error but I was just wondering if anyone has succesfully kept two together. Ive heard they like to be in groups of 3 or more.

The two datnoids will be 12 and 13 inches.

Cheers

need tank size.

 

[Steve_89]

180 gallon.

They will be the only fish in there other than 4 Distichodus affinis.

youll just have to try it out i got 3 juvies in a 30gl and they get along alright except for every now and then at night ill here some splashing from then chasing eachother but if you have enough hideouts you should be good just watch for fights when lights out

I have 2 dats and they fight all the time.

 

[Steve_89]

Thanks guys.

Ill just have to see how it goes.

Do they get bashed up bad Pangong??

 

[Pangong_ilong]

Nope. The other 1 just runs and hide.

im not sure but datnoids dont seem like they have any teeth or not visible to my eyes. i just see my dats ram each other they dont really nip

i have 4 in a 125, heavily planted, no issues whatsoever.

Ive tried 2 dats before but they ended up always fighting. Im trying it again and so far so good.. there are the occasional nipped scales but nothing major.
