My husband got this for Father's Day (he said I could take credit, but it was more of a present to himself lol). I've been looking online and I think it's a widebar, is that what you all think too? BTW just because I'm curious...how much do these typically sell for (he's between 7-8") because I'm wondering how good the price was :).

(Apologies for the quality, we took this with the cellphone cam)


THANKS!

((Edit: Correction, Husband said he's 7-8", not 6-7. Close but no cigar for me! Also, so far the census is Indo. That was our second guess lol, we just couldn't tell the difference in the two besides the color.))
 
Looks like widebar, but I'm wondering how you found a 6-7'' widebar in US???

EDIT:
Yeah, Indo.
Looked at the pic better.
 
Ah, Indo was the other one we were looking at trying to identify this guy. We couldn't figure out the difference between the widebar and indo other than the coloring. Anyone able to tell me how the heck I tell the difference?

Look at the tail
Could you be more specific? I'm new to this and I'm seriously comparing tails of Indo and Widebar (I have an ID guide open from another fish site) and I can't tell the difference other than the whole color thing.
 
The tail is NOT a definite way of telling which species of datnoides is which. I cant stand when people do this. I can tell you just by looking at it that it is a widebar. That is a hell of a deal and i would pay more for it.


Edit:
Also dont look at ID charts people post....They are no help.
