INDONESIAN TIGER DATNOID 7-8CM

The Indonesian Tiger Datnoid, scientifically known as Datnioides microlepis, is a striking and popular freshwater fish native to the rivers and estuaries of Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia. Known for its bold, tiger-like vertical black stripes set against a golden-yellow body, this fish is a predatory species, exhibiting a strong, robust build and an active, curious nature. These fish are best kept in large aquariums with ample swimming space and sturdy décor, as they can be territorial and may display aggression towards smaller tankmates. They thrive in well-maintained tanks with slightly brackish water, although they can adapt to full freshwater conditions. Due to their size, striking appearance, and interesting behaviour, Indonesian Tiger Datnoids are highly valued by aquarists who appreciate large, showy predator fish.
