I've had this tarpon for a little over a month now purchased as an indo but I'm hearing conflicting information on both atlanticus and cyprinoides. Can anyone i.d.? 7C95D29A-2356-403D-B1E6-14A432C6FE6D.jpeg9D7F15B6-8D07-4208-934B-E66022F5E1E1.jpeg
 
Position of pelvic fins strongly suggests atlanticus as they are well ahead of the dorsal fin.

you could check anal fin ray count
A = 22-25
C = 22-31
Although this would only confirm Not atlanticus and only if greater than 25.
