This is an update on my tiger fish as I was recently looking at pictures of the forskalii species of tiger fish and noticed that they looked more similar to that species than the images if vittatus. just double checking that they are vittatus

I don't think that's a pure Fatf cause Fatfs have slim body, gray adipose fin or sometimes less black and usually it's upper jaw is shorter than lower jaw. Your fish is more of a Batf. It has less visible stripes and bulkier body. I don't think it's a pure Batf though. Your fish could be a hybrid or an unnamed specie of Atf
