Tiger ID?

[krichardson]

Someone has an eight inch ATF that I've had my eye on the thing is that this one has yellow tint in its finnage,now I've kept vittatus before and dont recall any yellow but they did have a little red and this one has no red in its fins at all.I know there are a few different members in this family and this one also lacks a stripe pattern,any thoughts?

ive seen yellow tail VATF and GATF.
no stripes?
might be GATF.
pics?

 

[krichardson]

Cant get pics but this guy has a short looking head as compared to the Goliath photos that I've seen here.

might be an atf mimic.... does it have visible teeth?

Sounds like a nice fish

Ill leave the IDing to the experts like Mr. Channarox and westy

Its definately one of them,I'm kinda guessing Forskali,if I got the spelling correct can someone post pics of one?

 

[channarox]

could be forskalii.
they have shorter,rounderish heads.

 

[vamptrev]

could be forskalii.
they have shorter,rounderish heads.

but have stripes... he said its lacks stripes....

 

[channarox]

but have stripes... he said its silver....

i thought brevis had the stripes and not forskalii?
could be the other way around....oops.

I got a pretty reliable confirmation that the tiger in question is a vittatus.Thanks guys,Nic.
