Peculiar and interesting fish

[Al KW Tan]

Saw this interesting and peculiar looking small fish in a fish shop. It's around 5" long. Just wondering if this is actually an aquarium fish. Appreciate if someone can advise.

Sturgeon or smaller specie Sterlet. Tbh they both need huge aquariums. Aquariums like those of Public Aquarium's.

Any fish is an aquarium fish if the tank is big enough. I second what tlindsey said.

you'll need a chiller as well bec they thrive in cold temps so you'll have problems during summer time.

It is the smaller specie, Sterlet. Still, doubt a 120g can accommodate
