just getting back into the fish game after a deployment and was interested in this combo. Has any one had it? or seen it? both fish will be in the 3-4" range to start off

I'm actually going to be trying that very soon, I'll let you know how it goes. I figure it should work because both fish grow pretty slow and my dats never bug other fish.

It will work. I have a school of clown loaches with my datnoids. Just make sure the loaches are larger than your datnoids when you put them together. When the dat outgrows them, they should be fine.

Chaos for me. The dats grew faster and when I went on vacation for 4 days my loaches got eaten. I think if you keep them well fed or the loaches are much larger you should be fine though
