Pulcher will deff be the most expensive. NTT and/or IT will be the cheapest.
A ton of people mix dat species. I would not try to have 2 of each in 1 tank though as suggested above. This is because Dats are bound to fight with each other atleast a bit, but are much more likely to fight with Dats of their own species, so having only 2 of each will lead to the dominate of each species beating the weaker one quite a bit. This is especially true for NGT!
It would be better to have 1 of each, or a bunch of each (4+). I would suggest 6+ for NGT.
Now this may not apply to you if you will be having deithers in there as well to take some of the aggression away. In that case you maybe able to get away with 2 of each (still not NGT though). But it sounds like you are looking for a dat specific tank.
If you would like around 10 in a tank try 6 of one species and 1 of the others. If you are determined to get a pair then try it with NTT as they are the most timid.
Good luck with the tank and be sure to post some pics when its up and running
Oh and you can decrease the aggression alot by getting Dats of different sizes. Large Dats generally wont pick on small ones. The closer they get in size the more likely they are to fight.
