Very nice, what you have is a "dwarf giraffe cat" species, most likely a parauchenoglanis punctatus. The good thing is that they don't grow as large as auchenoglanis giraffe catfish which reach over 3 ft. in length. Parauchenoglanis punctatus females grow to a maximum of 17 1/2", males to 16" as adults. They are great aquarium fish, very peaceful and easily eat a variety of pellet foods and also worms and night crawlers. With these species avoid high aquarium temperatures and high PH levels, especially as juveniles. Mine like temps of around 76 degrees and PH around 6.0 to 7.5.... This pic is an adult female...
