Looking through the Datnoid pix sticky, i THINK i saw a Dat eating a Loach? and the mouth was HUGE!

Are there any pics of a Dat eating anything? Do they have enormous mouths? Any pics of them eating would be great. I think this would be my buying point!!!
 
No pics of him eating his fella tankmates on act but this guy recently ate 2 of my clown loach :irked:....may they rest in peace lol.

im looking for a cheap one. no need to start off with a $700 dat!

Indo Dats are the most common. You can probably find small ones from $15 to $25. they grow really slow too. I had a group of 6 that were about 1" when I first got them and they grew to 5" in a year. So you'll have to spend big or be patient for a good size Dat.
 
They have a huge mouth for there size.
 
Nice shot! I could never get those kinds of shots.....:(
