Sorry if I am formatting this wrong in some way. I believe I have this fish:

It looks distinctly different from my other "giant otos". I very much like its flat head and its unique patterning.

I am attaching some photos:

I would be more than happy to take additional pictures if it would help.

Which fish do you think I have? How do we know for sure?
If my guess is correct, is there a way for me to submit my photos to the species page?
Can I become the one "registered keeper"?
