No idea what species this fish is

Post by quatermass »

Hi folks,
I've had this lone catfish in my tank for a year and he seems to be very chummy with my Corys. He certainly seems to think he is a Cory!

He is the length of my Bronze Corys.


I first I thought he was a Oto, but he has a adipose fin and the Otos I've seen don't.

If would be great if someone could Id him for me.

Many Thanks.
