Hesitating Again! >.<"

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
^ that's a true ST. Why have you chosen to dismiss the notion that it's a 3 bar indo? If you want to believe it's a ct or pulcher then that's fine but I would certainly hesitant to spend that kind of money when the fish has been id'd as 3 different species. If I were you I would send Jojo a pm from Ichiban and get his input.

I have seen the fish in person, and I am sorry for the bad photo (I took those photo, and I should invest on a better camera first) XD

I dismiss the fact of the fish as an Indo, because it has the specific characteristic of a D.pulcher


So strollo, what this tiger then? Indo too? :) (same 3 striped tail marking as my first picture (with a fat middle marking))

CT or Indo. Still not an ST imo and still not worth that amount of money. I would rather spend the $3500 and have a true ST.
 
It is my understanding, and this could be yet again a case of me being wrong, that they are not extinct. They are protected. It is also my understanding that CT is the same fish geneticly. CT comes from Cambodia and Vietnam. That makes since as the Mekong river goes through all 3 countries. John Kerry and I used to go on covert operations there when we were in Nam. Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

Protected or extinct, the new ones I see now do not look like Pulchers that are from Thailand, which is where the ST is from. The Pulcher lookalikes are either from Cambodia, Vietnam or Indonesia. They are all datnoids but they all look different. They shouldn't be put in the same category as a Pulcher. When someone refers to a ST, they are referring to a Pulcher from Thailand. Call it what it is and don't turf hop. They deserve their own names. ST, VT, CT, IT, AT, NTT, NGT.

Like the Asian race...it's a race of people but there are different ethnicity's. You have Vietnamese, Chinese, Loas, Combodian, Korean, Japanese and so on...all Asian's but different ethnicity's.
 
Protected means there is hope they will be available. Extinct is just slightly different.

Lol@ turf hop...You make a rather confusing statement with what you said....The pulcher seems to come from different locations so you have regional variants with the ST being the most sought after so there is really only one category...either the fish is a pulcher or it is not.
