I purchased this little guy (3.5"-4") Indo Dat over the week-end from a vendor here on MFK. I went to his house and was close to buying a 2.5" indo, UNTIL I noticed this guy in one of his display tanks. Seller told me he had hand picked this one from a very large batch a couple of months ago. He even said it started eating pellets all by itself one day (without being starved)!! He then went to say the dat is always stable......I was sold, after much begging (on my part) and alot of ("NOs" on his part), he reluctantly said OK. :drool: These pictures were taken immediately after acclimation with my cheap cell phone. Lighting is a single 18" T12 fluorescent light. Indo dat was stable all the way from sellers tank to my quarantine tank. :)p_00600.jpgp_00575.jpgp_00580.jpgp_00598.jpgp_00557.jpgp_00567.jpg

Looking at the pictures, the 4th picture is the closest to its true color.....bright gold/yellow. The tank is a 29 gallon.
 
Thanx for all the positive comments guys...I really appreciate it. I've had dats in the past, but this one is extra special to me....he will eventually go into a 150 gallon that I have already with different types of silver dollars. It ate 4 Hikari gold mini pellets last night......14 mini pellets tonight!! He wanted more but I know when to say no.....at least I would like to think so. :)
