If that is what it is, definitely. Vieja Fenestratus or Vieja Bifa....., males get up to 16 in. As I said if that is what it is. hard to tell it seems washed out.
Unless you have a huge tank or plan on one, or a pond, I would not even consider the RTC.
Looks like either some kind of vieja or one of the chuco species. I'd probably say vieja though, because of the head shape.
