Usually, a small tail and fins will indicate a fish that has grown very rapidly.... the body simply outgrew the tail. That fish has mature coloration, and what appears to be larger eyes, which to me would indicate an older fish. Not quite sure what to make of it.

It's a decent size Gill but the tail is very small in ratio to the body.....

Is the Gill that big or the tail that small.
