The Indo Datnoid or Indo Tigerfish (IT) is found throughout Peninsular Malaysia and the Indonesian islands of Sumatra, Borneo, and likely parts of East Java as well. In the wild, they inhabit a variety of habitat types but are typically found in warm, slow moving stretches of rivers or lakes in areas close to overhanging vegetation. An ambush predator, they tend to hang motionless in the water awaiting smaller fish or invertebrates to swim by, using quick reflexes and a huge protrusible jaw to literally inhale prey items. In the aquarium, they require well-oxygenated water and are sensitive to water quality, so regular water changes are important to keep them thriving. Tankmates should be chosen carefully as they can eat surprisingly large fish and other more aggressive or very active fish will likely stress them out and potentially cause their distinct pattern of bars to fade.

The most widespread species in the genus Datnioides, the Silver Datnoid is found along the coastline of much of Southeast Asia and extending to the Eastern coast of India.

Like its relatives, it is a powerful predator adapted to feed almost entirely on smaller fish and invertebrates. The Silver Datnoid is the hardiest of the Datnoids in the aquarium and will typically thrive under a wide range of conditions. It is also slightly more aggressive than its relatives so choose tankmates with care.
