I had an LFS order 2 dats for me. They knew what they were when I asked for "dats" and said they deal with them all the time. I asked what kind of dat, and they said gold or we can get silver. Anyway, I went ahead and ordered them and today the arrived at the store. When I got there , they were being kept in a tank marked brackish. I thought these fish were freshwater. I do not have a brackish tank set up. Is there a type of dat that is brackish, or is the store mis-informed? I would like to get them if they can be acclimated to freshwater. I can get pictures up if needed.
New to dats, quick question
- Thread starter Pwn

They may have gotten scat and dat mixed up.
I don't have dats,but I do not believe there is a gold and a silver version. My lfs has these scats in the brackish section.

Silver dats are brackish but can be acclimated to freshwater. All dats are very tolerable of salt.
the only 2 dats that are slightly brackish are the Silver AT and the NGT... but all can be kept in freshwater.
