pmed you!

They also have a 8"ish odd bar datnoid for $90ish, a few more 3 bar indo that looks like sturgeon's picture, and a huge NTT

no photo allowed, can't show you guys >..<

That's the reason I have to buy the fish to show it here

;)
 
That may or may not be a ST, CT, VT or Indo, but to me personally, if it does not have the tail pattern... it is an indo to me. It must have the tail pattern for me personally to be considered ST,CT,or VT. Read in another thread that CT/VT with the ST tail patterns were only going for 20% more then what the ST with indo tail patterns... I will gladly pay the 20% more for the ST tail pattern. With out the ST tail pattern... the "CT/VT" will always in the back of my head be suspicious. It must have the ST tail pattern.

Maybe we should start fund to DNA test a real ST and INDO's and see if they are the same? I will gladly donate $50 to the cause. We can clear this up once and for all.

LOL, I like your dedication in wanting the authentic fish than one that can be marked as fake.

When you spending that kind of money... you better have no doubt in your mind that whatever you are getting is real.

What if I got the "ST" and my friend comes over and say nice Indo. I'll tell him that an ST with indo tail pattern.
In the back of his head he like - "Righttttt......... :ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:
"YOU PAID WHAT???:ROFL::ROFL:"

Because that is what I would think.

That picture is an indo but for you to say, as you did, that there are no ST is wrong.Period.



Let me rephrase what i meant...There are NO "BABY" ST. call it what you want CT, VT but there are NO baby Siamese Tigers. There are captive adults but no wilds are known to exist in the Laos or Thailand provinces. Those that are captive are not breeding. No one has figured out the process of breeding true "ST".

trust me I live in a country that dinner plates them...:ROFL:
