Eeltail catfish, anyone recognise it?

Post by Ombry »

I bought an eeltail from a pet store (in Perth, Western Australia) not long ago, they weren't sure what it was or where it was from. It is about 10cm long and seems to like warm water (tank is at 24 degrees, it likes hiding near the heater). Maybe Neosilurus or Porochilus?

Here are a couple of other photos of the same fish:
