It's not a surinamensis, you can blame the exporters/importers for that.
Most likely G. brachybranchus, too small to tell though. Could be altifrons/abalios or a few other species.
Should have researched prior to purchase. Best kept in shoals of at least 4+ of their own species and should be kept on a sand substrate, not hyper-colour blue gravel that it can't sift (how they ideally feed).

Get another 3, and some fine sand.
Actually, before you do that, how big is that tank? Looks -incredibly- small in the photos. These fish can reach upwards of 10" SL for healthy males, so they need at least a big 4', preferably 5'.
