Finally scored some baby Indos!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice dats ;) I especially like the split bar on the last guy :headbang2
 
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.
 
wow thats a really good deal. are u positive that the big dats wont eat the smaller dats?

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

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.
 
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!!
