Never kept dats but Convicts are just boring. Pesonally I would love to keep some dats, Convicts are just cheap fish. That's just my opinion though.

Convicts are way too common around here, any fish that can be sold at a Petsmart doesn't appeal to me too much. I'd rather buy a unique fish that noone has or a Monster. I just picked up a 17 inch channel catfish....not in LFS's around here at least.


You don't like keeping common fish, but you want keep dats?

Really??? I had no idea! :ROFL:

I think you know what I meant, but I'll explain it anyway. Cons are definitely more common (technically), but think about how often you hear people talking about their cons, then compare that to how often you hear about people's dats. Dats are normally more rare but because of their popularity, they are becoming more common since more and more people keep buying them to keep up with everyone else. Because of this, cons are starting to actually seem less common because they are now seen as unpopular and therefore uninteresting fish by most fish keepers, so less people actually keep them.

I say that someone who says Dats are overrated has never seen an 18" golden tiger dat in full glory.

I have.

comparing that to a convict is like comparing horse manure to ice cream.

YES thankyou ;)

I don't mind a large, stable dat ;) you should get one. FYI American Tigers are not native to the US, polynomial..

And that must be some delicous cow manure.
