Is this armatus???

Just got back from lfs and after talking with the guy there he mentioned he had gotten in some vampire fish. Went to look in the tank and see 5 scombs but after looking closer one stood out from the other scombs. So my gut told me to get it..I know it's not a tat because it looks way to different and I have 4 but I wanted to share the latest pickup and confirm if this is indeed a armatus. Best pics I can get now will get more once he is acclimated

Looks like it. Has the black stripe behind the gill. Tail and adipose look different as far as shading. Can u get a better side profile shot?

Awesome if you paid scomb money for it.

I'm tempted to get another armatus every time I see a photo of one.

First one ive ever had. I just got him because I knew it was something different in his order of scombs. And I knew it wasn't a tat by the fins. Are they as aggressive as I read? Ive read stories about armatus killing tigerfish..I have 2 goliathes and if this the case the armatus will definitely not be put in that setup
