ID this GEOS pleas~

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
alfriton is my pick.. nice geo
 
Geo. altifrons with no doubt.
The lack of or presence of only tiny black lateral spot is basically the first thing I take note of when identifying (or at least narrowing down the identity of) suranamensoid-type earth eaters.
Literally translated, 'altifrons' = 'high forehead', referring to the prominent slope of the forehead as seen in this species' profile.
Very impressive fish you've got there. Not many folks get to see this species at such large sizes.

:) That’s all right with me. Thank you for your compliment about GEOs.
