i say yellow..but it is very possible to be a brown..

I am almost certain it is a black. I have kept all three species and it looks almost identical to black bullheads. Browns almost always have some sort of pattern, blacks usually don't. Yellows always have the white lower whiskers, others do not. And just from the general look of it compared to browns, I say black.

It's a half and half thing (With some saying Yellow) between Brown or Black.

Well you never know that its brown since not ALL browns have color patterns. But both you and me know that it is not a yellow.

looks like a brown bullie to me. They have nice yellow bellys sometimes

Agreed. It doesn't look like a yellow, or a black to me.

Not all brown bullheads are blotched.

I'm still sticking with a Brown based on the body shape as well.
Here is a good pic of the two...
