Thanks. The Silver is in not full fresh but not full brackish...? Haha! I add rock salt after cleaning but not to the point to make it brackish. He used to be in full fresh but I noticed that he looked a little bumed. Once I added some rock salt he started swimming around more and started to recover his shine.

Cool, thanks! ive check several LFS's looking for AT's, they were fairly common several months ago but the whole brackish thing kept me from getting any. But now im on a mission to get one to complete the collection. lol.

WOW ISLANDER671 THAT DAT IS SWEET IS IT YOUR'S....


IF IT IS CAN YOU POST MORE PIX....

The one in my avatar? Nah not mine...i really wish it was, it is owned by a famous LFS here in Japan called Akano. I actually went there today (on my mission for AT's) and saw the fish in person, it is amazing!! measures in at over 45cm (18+ inches) i couldnt afford him so i picked up a 5-6 inch thinbar instead..lol..

HERE'S SOME PICTURE'S OF MY DAT HOPE YOU GUY'S LIKE IT....

Stunning widebar! i like the bicher dat combo too, ive got the same thing going.

 

[islander671]

I have 5 tigers total.

Biggest are 14" indo and 14" widebar.

Dont you have one that is all black all the time? is it one of the big ones? ive got my eye on one that is so black that you cant even see where the markings are at. and his eyes are so blue. i want to get him but the lfs say he might be sick.

Added 2 new Dats to the collection today, a 5-6inch thinbar, and a 13" Split bar indo. pix up later. bad thing is, the big guy went in and my two other large indo's lost their stability....

Good luck finding a stable indo..lol. ive seen several here that are labeled as stable at the lfs and they sell for twice as much as an historically instable indo.

i know what you mean, i have had 3 indos in the past and only 1 was stable all the time the other 2 were 50% of the time which was annoying, it actually had amazing colour but did not like arowanas so i sold it.
heres some pics of the 2 most stable ones, the first pic is the smaller constantly stable dat.

Dixon i cant get it to work... now it works... VERY nice fish!

Thats why i stopped growing out indos. I dont like the faded, blotchy color
when they get big. Stable patterns are hard to find.
