Here is a vid I watched the whole vid about tiger dats. If you understand Thai breeder will explain to you the different between male and female. (at 28mins)

Also the reason why most breeder cant breed them because it required really clean and DEEP water to breed them. Thats why you never see them breed in aquarium. (at 19mins)

This is a very good information..it tell you the different where the datnoid come from. Cambodia , Lao, Thailand and Vietnam.




 
According to the breeder...female seem to look more round and spoon

Another great find,thanks for sharing.I had read somewhere some time ago that dats were said to breed in very deep waters.
