Whenever someone posts a pic of a giant datnoid or when I search online they are always discolored. Meaning the strips are no longer black, mostly light brown almost indistinguishable to the yellow background of the fish body
 
I have no real answer my assumption is like a skinny person with tattoos now suddenly gained 150lb

Datnoids change color pretty regularly. Mine goes from light brown stripes to black all the time. When I feed, he colors right up and comes right up to the glass. When he’s hiding, he usually lightens up.
