Datnioides microlepis BLEEKER, 1854

Indonesian Tiger Perch

March 13th, 2012 — 1:18pm

In aquarium literature this species is also referred to as ‘fine scaled tiger fish’, ‘Indonesian tiger fish’, ‘Sumatran tiger fish’, ‘Indo datnoid’, and ‘Indo dat’. The common name of ‘tiger fish’ is also used in reference to the African alestid genus Hydrocynus, and the more appropriate ‘tiger perch’ was suggested by Roberts and Kottelat (1994).
