Dorado I.D. confirmation

[jaxx]

Ok here we go. Had a dorado jump out and was found on the floor in the morning. However it gives the opportunity to do a close up pic and actually do a scale count. So I did the count. Anyone else care to try? Brasileinsis or Franc?

?????

My scale count says Brasileinsis. That lateral line dips low on these guys.

 

[jaxx]

Can anyone double check if I’m wrong?

What was it sold as?

 

[jaxx]

Just as Golden Dorado. Paid 80 per fish. Brasses are rare. Was surprised once I found the lateral line and started counting.

 

[kendragon]

I hope it is what you think it is.

If I counted right it lines up with Brasileinsis. Both laterline to base of dorsal, and lateral line length. Hard to count all those little scales. And even at that length the teeth on these are something.
