Altum or Scalare?

Thanks!
I finally found some pics that make me think you're right. Scalares w/ the orange eye patch & Altums on same page - they'fe shaped differently - bodies even shorter than Scalare's at same height (Scalare appears rounder). Also - Altums appear to have a different color on top of background between dark stripes.
Good. Maybe mine won't outgrow the tank as fast.

most distinct body shape on the altum also the brown bar (wide and full length) it is between the black bars and there is not much silver showing.
