Looks more like an acanthophylia than a scoly to me, but difficult to tell... would be helpful to know if the flesh is "skirted" beyond the skeleton?
Acanthos will spread significantly beyond the skeleton like a skirt, where as the scoly will be fluffy, but not "skirty"...
HTH!

Yeah acantho for sure. I have several large ones and you can’t mistake their eating. That’s exactly like yours
Thanks, it’s doing well and I’d like to get more of them. Just wasn’t sure what I originally had bought.
