i want a datnoid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yea...I bought a 3in NGT 2-3years ago and it is now 11-12in and has been that size for about a year or so. Bought a couple 2-3in Indos about 1-2 years ago and they are about about 8in now. Bought a 1-2in NTT about 3-4 months ago and I sold it a week ago at about 4-5in. In my experiences (and I have a total of 12 dats of different species from 2in-13in), they grow quickly as juveniles and slow down around the 6in+ marker. All this "1-2in a year" to me means someone is not keeping them in the proper conditions.
