Blacktip Shark? (Carcharhinus cf. limbatus)

I do believe that rather than C. limbatus, this is actually a spinner shark (C. brevipinna). Spinners have black tips on every fin including their anal fin, which this one has even if it’s faint, and they have a slightly different shape of their dorsal. The dorsal also originates well behind their pectoral fins as this one does.
