I was told this is a Guyana Red Hoplias Aimara. What do you guys think?

No this is a different fish.

Yes I notice it a different fish..
Just want to know if you bag this too
And what the price tag on this one ...

It is reddish but not the same red feature on my Tapajos red
The scale each of them have the reddish lining on them.
 
I was wondering if this fish could be stunted as the eyes are so big compared to the body. The owner has had it for a year now so not sure what the typical growth is for a small Aimara. It was said to be fed a small meal every couple days when it was smaller and then as it gained some size it was fed a good meal twice a week. What do you guys think or is this what a typical profile of an Aimara?
 
thats one of a physical traits of a aimara , that menacing big eyes
