We are seeing a lot of those mini ITs here in Singapore recently. Retails for about USD5 each . Got myself half a dozen recently. Currently keeping them with 2 baby Endicheris birchir in a 2ft tank.

How long would you say it takes them to get to 6-7" given the proper food and water quality?

i'll buy 2 or 3 if your willing to ship them to toronto.

Growth rate pretty slow . 10-12 months perhaps from 1.5inch to 6-7inch.

I no longer have the small dats in with the big ones. However, I move them because I was afraid the 12" bichir would eat them , not the larger dats. The short while I had them together the larger ones never even looked at the smaller ones as food and these larger dats will instantly slam any food I throw in the tank.

Im not going to sell these, well at least untill I can find some pulchers!

Explorer, are you sure about that growth rate? I mean 6" in 10 months sounds very fast for dats.

oh my god i'm jealous. Great pickup. The dat in the last pic is amazing. Split bar

 

[JD7.62]

I have at least three that have split bars and one that has a split on both sides!

So far I have only fed the little ones tiny guppies and they all chowed down on that but when I tried froxen plankton most ate but a few did not. My live black worms get here tomorrow so I hope to fatten them up on that a bit.

Seriously though I need some more dats. I have a total of 13 Indos, now I need some Pulchers, NTTs, and NGTs!!
