All the Indos I have look great stable bars and colours and some even look better than most ST's that I see. It is all about the tank they are in if they are happy or not and if they are being fed the right foods. Even the NTT's I have are alway stable and have an awesome redish colour on their fins.
This whole ST's are better looking is a joke.
Until not that long ago they were all Microlepis or being called part of the microlepis complex or some crap like that. So that means they were all being called Indos or a variation of the Indo.
Now guy's dont go out buying all the Indos you see just because of another comments. Also dont pay more for the 3 bar Indo's as well it is all just another way to make more money.
