I was looking at all of the picture of the dats and I was wondering where I could get some. I was also wondering if there are and special requirements for these fish. So if you have any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated thanks again:nilly:
 
You can ask your LFS if they can get some in, try the vendors on MFK, or check out the buy/sell thread.

As far as special requirements... They need Very good water conditions to thrive. Should be kept solo or in a group as they can be a bit aggressive towards each other.
They have very large mouths so make sure the tank mates are big enough that they wont be eaten.

GL :D
 
another special requirement is a big wallet :D
 
another requirement is a ton of patience. dats grow slow specially when they reach around 6 inches long. there are dats, particularly ITs that are hard to be made stable so they appear black all the time. when a dat is unstable, it would be very frustrating since you cant enjoy its beauty
