There really is no way to give a proper ID without a picture. Could be one of many species.

Nice pseed!!! How big is he?

I'd say 4" or close to it...
At first I thought he was gettin beat up alot but he just always seems to look ratty, his fins I mean...I thought maybe water was too warm for him cause its around 74...but he eats good and seems happy

74 F is a fine temp for them. It's actually within their range of preferred temps.
