I've been around to 4 LFS and noticed that most of all the indo babies (~1") are oddball. I've seen more three bar and 3-4 bar indo's and barely any of the regular 4 bar indos. oddballs cant be this frequent right?? anyways lemme know what u guys think. :popcorn:
 
ive got 13 babies and most of the ones i got are 3 thick bars.. i also have V bars and inverted V.. i also have 3 1/2 bars. and the classic 4 bars. i prolly have about 7-8 widebar looking IT's..
 
i think its starting to become like clown loaches. now all you see are oddballs. regular pattern loaches are becoming the "oddball". even petsmart is stocked with oddball loaches. why? i have no idea!

i have noticed this to. like at 6th ave petstore ALL their CL's are oddballs:irked:
 
yea out of the 6 indos babies i have 5 are oddballs and 1 normal indo. I only found 3 out of the 30 or so in the tank that were a normal 4 bar indo, and the other two didnt even have the four stripes going all the way down the body.
i've only seen ngts and ntt's in bulk, and i never found an oddball ngt and only a couple of oddball ntt's. i was just wondering if oddball indos were easy to find or if we somehow hit the indo oddball jackpot.
 
ive got
6-3 bars both sides
1-V bar and 4 bar
3-4 bar and inverted V bar
1-3 bar and 3 1/2 bar
2-classic 4 bar and 4 bar

i got mines from IA..ive seen them. mostly are oddballs. hard to spot them tho..
 
Outta my 20 the majority are 3 bar. A couple 5 bar and v bars as well. Very nice dats!
 
so now their are a lot of fake wide bars out there.......and the 4 bars indo are "rare"
 
That's weird. A couple years ago when I bought five ITs from one LFS, they all were common-looking four bar ITs. Also, my bigger 8" IT was also four bar. Out of my 7 ITs, only one was oddball in that it has a 'Y' shaped split-bar on both sides.

Since then I sold the 6 common-looking ITs and kept the oddball.

The LFS I work at now has a bunch of baby ITs. I kinda want to buy all of them to see how they turn out, but I don't think my boss will want me buying all of them. LOL.
