whats the minimum tank size for 1 dat

What kind? Tankmates?

For IT/NTT/ST you will need like a 200g tank when full grown
for AT/NGT a 125g is good

This is assuming no or minimal tankmates
 
I bought 3, had them in a 5 gallon with some clown loaches, then they moved up to a 10 gallon, with CL's still, and now they're in a 90.

There eating black worms, blood worms, krill, and mysis shrimp
Temp 80-83
Substrate: 3M Colourquartz Peach Sand
Decor: rocks, driftwood & some fake plants

They're so darn cute!!
 
10 1''-2'' ITs
165 gallon
2 xp4's
1 5''-6'' NTT
1 Fire eel
1 Tire track
Eating mysis shrimp, blood worms and market shrimp. They prefer the market shrimp. What a surprise.
 
55 Gallon
3x small Borneo Dats
2x small clown loaches.
Eating market shrimp mixed w/ Sinking Carnivore. Gonna try to get them to just take sinking carnivore. Planning on getting 3 more next weekend. Haven't lost any all are pretty stable. Worth the $60 that I paid for them.
 
I added 3'' jardini yesterday.....well, only a head left this morning. Must have ate him last night:(
 
lol sorry for the loss, to make you feel better i also had a 2" jardini in a tank with a 1" albino oscar and a few red clawed crabs, everything was going along just well and one night i came home saw the jar missing and found the crabs cleaning his skull..
