Hi,I recently bought stickyrice's datnoids.I have put them into a 455 gallon tank with a silver arowana,blue arowana,and a huge jaguar ray.I know sticky once posted about his pair doing a dance and was curious if it was breeding behavior.Well they started doing the dance the day i put them in the big tank.Now the male has moved all the gravel out from under the wood and once in a while i see them both under the wood doing the dance(wagging side by side).The male will turn the most intense color like a banana.They are now starting to chase the arowanas away and the big ray.Could this be the start of breeding?I also noticed the female is very very fat??

I hope you get lucky! I get dibs on the first fry! lol gl with them.
 
If they breed, stickyrice is going to cry, I am sure of it!!! Good Luck!! I want to buy one too, if they breed successfully :D

second dib on the ST :D
 
BTW, someone posted long time ago, saying breeder breeding ST in Thailand, and its only 10% chance of survival rate of its fry!! :O

Limited Quantity!!! Limited Edition!!! :O

This is going to be hot! :O I bet hotfishgirl's mail box will be flood by pm.

Lets us pre-order first!!! How much are you going to sell them?? $50? $100? ^^ Going to ship too right? ^^

Paypal? Check? Money order? ^^ so excited, just like when the ps3 coming out :D
 
hopefully. lets wait and see....
 
sounds promising, I actually have a video of how they breed them in Thailand, artificially, I need to dig it up and see how they raise the fries, but they probably don't reveal the secrets.
 
Wow! I hope you get some baby Dats. You'd be the first I've heard that has a breed Dats in captivity.
