Default Datnioides species : Identification & care

With the recent introduction/import of the many kinds of 'controversial' tiger Patterns [ie designs that look lke 'Y', 'H','X' etc etc ], the below are just some ways of identifying the basic groups of tigers. Til date there is still NO CONFIRMED way of identifying any kind of tiger 100% accurately.

There is the tail method, the 'Body-shape' method etc etc . . . . . .

I'm just sharing based on experience as a humble hobbyist.

Perhaps those with the updated Scientific Names of these datnoids can care to add on .....

What I have are pictures to ID some of the common tigers;

TAIL PATTERNs


New Guinea Tiger ~ NGT


Siamese Tiger ~ ST {Some refer to this as CambodianTiger ~CT }


Indonesian Tiger ~ IT


Northen Thailand Tiger ~ NTT {also known as Thin Stripped Tiger}


American Tiger ~ AT {also known as American Tiger or Silver Tiger}
