Atlantic tarpon??

[ptgabrys]

Hey guys, I bought this tarpon unlabeled and tried to ID myself, there wasn't much info online about this except for some about relative eye size, saying atlantics have larger eyes than indo-pacifcs. I thought this guy had a chance at being an atlantic, but went with indo-pacific due to how common they are and the uncertainty in my ID job. So my question is- Does this guy look like an atlantic or indo-pacific?

Thanks!
