So I just picked this little guy up from my LFS. I think it’s a maxima but the LFS says it’s a crocea. It came from a tank break down so he didn’t order it.

That is a Crocea. In captivity, they often have their scutes like this, in case you think that Crocea does not have scutes.
Thank you. I stand corrected from my LFS ☺️
 
Agree, crocea. I would check the shell to make sure there's new growth. If not, you'll probably have to move it closer to your lights or increase your lighting.
