(Its the one gold in colour with a big black spot)
This is being sold in my local shop as a Golden Spotted Catfish. I'm guessing its not - any ideas anyone?
Sorry about the picture, I had to take it on my mobile phone sneakily while the assistant wasn't looking!

That is a "sun cat", Horabagrus brachysoma. I just gave one away 11 inches in lenght.

Cheers Guys,
That was a super quick reply!
Have to keep it in mind although if it grows to over 11" then it will probably outgrow the tank!
