Looks like 100% Tiger Shovelnose to me.

Really, but I thought tigers have a greyish colour on its body and have distinctive thin stripes, this one has a sort of a brownish colour and the stripes are a bit large

Guess it will change overtime right??

I could be wrong but I personally don't see the Redtail traits.

tlindsey is spot on...100% tsn, p. fasciatum... no debate about it.
