Yes it is.
From this picture I cannot make out which species it is.

Thanks anyway. It's always risky to try to make a definitive ID from just a photo.

Always? IME here on Planet Catfish, about 1 out of 100 is a challenge to ID to a species level for this community. 99/100 appear easy for the experts (of which I am not so you are not hurting my pride :) ) And all they go by are pictures.
