Is this a Four lined pim pictus?

[Sturgion]

I recently saw this fish being sold as four lined pim pictus ( Pimelodus blochii ) listed to only get to 12cm (Where I believed they got 8”+). Thought other people would be able to identify it better than me so Is this fish a Pimelodus blochii or a separate species wrongly named?

I’m pretty sure they have the listed size wrong. It’s either a blochii or albofasciatus, both get ~8-10”

Agree, p. blochii so could probably make 12” in the right conditions. Think someone got their cm and inches mixed up!

Morris is 21 years old and is the biggest I know of at a foot or so
