Base on the size and my experience of looking at Dats. Its a CT. true ST got a rounder type body.

ST or CT.. either way its a pulcher and beautiful find. enjoy it!

I do have a gut feeling that there will be an abundance of these CT datnoids coming in at some point in time and then gone with the wind again

Woah! 6k! How big is the fish? It looked like 12" or smaller..

If I kept mine, I could buy a brand new lexus now xD

I'd say ST, because of the full wrapped tail.

As for overall features, 1) it's too small to determine if the fish will have a high back or not (like a peacock bass hump), 2) body shape - as many fishermen and even myself still believe that's how to distinguish between a male & a female datnoid (no scientific proof) slender elongated body as male and round body as female.

Also, by looking back at my old photo (it hurts to see), I have CT that had round body shape too.
