IN YOUR HEAD
i just got 3 dats...i don't see this common name in the sticky so i am not sure what to look at for max size...they were labled "Borneo tiger dats"...the guy at the store said they will top out at 12", but idk and thoughts/tips...
 
i forgot to type a pice of the name...idk if it will make a diff, but they were "borneo gold tiger dats"...idk if that is diff. from your thought on the possible id...i wish i could get pics as my camera and main computer are down...thanx
 
probably ITs.....it's embarrassing when a vendor/LFS doesn't know the name of the fish they are selling and instead of making an effort to find out, they "baptize" ' em out of laziness.

i can't get pics yet...one seems whiter cream, one is yellowish cream, and one is mostly blackish brown with a cream strip on the forehead like a bgk...they look cool as hell...i wish i had gotten some a long time ago...maybe if i can find the charger for my camera or the conector for my phone i can get some pics up...i will try...

this lfs gets alot of oddball fish and they are normally good with ids/ names of the fish...
