Jeremy Roche - 2013-04-09 Tiger Fish are primarily carnivores. They are a predator that in the wild primarily feeds on fish fry and small fishes, small shrimps, crabs, worms, and insect larvae. In the aquarium their main diet consists of smaller fish although they can sometimes be coaxed into eating shrimp, worms or insects. One look at their large mouth will tell you that small tank mates will disappear quickly. They are not aggressive towards other species but will attempt to eat any fish that will fit into their mouth.

Joel Dale - 2013-02-05 I had one years ago and on my visit to the Shed Aquarium I know I MUST have one again . These are easy fish to keep and will eat out your hand in no time.
Anonymous - 2012-08-27 I think , the siamese tiger fish could not grow bigger if they leave in a big aquarium with alot of large fish around them. Physical emotion.
David.J.Harrison - 2010-10-26 Hi, I have just got a Datnioides quadrifasciatus in my brackish tank, I was hoping to get one of these but I have been getting different opinions on whether this type is brackish or not, can this be clarified?

Val - 2011-07-06 Gold Dats aren't neccessarily brackish. They'll survive in a brackish tank but it's not manditory.
samiran roy,india - 2011-12-16 I was thinking that where could I find the most cheap Datnoid.Yesterday,when I visited a nearby market,and in the market there is a place where thy sell aquarium fishes at cheap rate.I decided to have a look in there and I saw a pair of datnoids. I then asked the seller that how much was the just for the sake of curiosity. They were about 3 inches long. The seller said they were 300rs for a pair. I then bought the two fishes and I have identified them as gold datnoids. I have heard that datnoids go at very high rates,but this is the most cheapest datnoid I have ever seen.

Andrew Wallace - 2012-03-24 I would love to order a true Tiger Datnoid, where could I do this ?. Please if anyone could help me, I would Greatly Appreciate it !! Thanks !! in Advance !!!! Andrew
Jeremy Roche - 2012-03-24 Normally you can go to a pet shop and have them order you one. I wouldn't go to a change. Try a smaller store that just deals with fish.
Val Durio - 2011-06-23 I have been into dats since the early 80's. I raised 2 in a 240 gal. plexiglass tank to what I think was max. I lost them due to a mistake of adding a friends peacok bass which was sick. Over the years I've had different kinds of dats but not the true 4 wide bar Indos. I recently found 4 true Indos which I traded everything in my 125 gal glass show tank. It's fun watching them during feeding. I can't wait till they get large. I feed them only frozen foods, blood worms, brian shrimp and when they get larger, silversides.

lori - 2011-09-02 What area are you in? I am trying to find a good home for my 8 inch gold tiger day It's got perfect bars. I am asking $120 obo
Val - 2011-09-30 I'm in the bay area near Sacramento. I recently picked up two more gold tigers. there all about 3.5 to 4 inches now they are growing faster than I expected. I took all the gravel out and they are starting to show there true colors. they really like frozen krill. Sorry I cant put any more fish in the tank. one thing I have to consider is as they get larger they eat more and that means more $$$$$$
Alex Burleson - 2011-09-30 While that is an upsetting loss, the new Indos you have now must surely be, an exciting addition to your home! Feeding fish such as Datnoids can be a very exciting experience as well!
The Gold Datnoid has long been an industry favorite, and just one look at this healthy large fish says it all!

How do you know which one is a girl and a boy fish?
There are no visual differences between the genders, so there is no way to sex these fish.

Gold Datnoid can live to gather with goldenfish.
Gold fish produce a lot of ammonia into the water and can sometimes aggressive. Monitor water conditions and behavior.
Hi I have a 3 inch Dat that eats (peas)? When I feed them to my cichlids is this usual?
No. He doesn't know they are for the cichlids and they are quite edible.
