    I bought this one about 3 months ago and i can't remember the name can anyone help out it's the first pic
    While i was taking the Plecos Pic
    my Pictus Cat that I bought when it was about 2" in size came out and made an apperance this one rarely comes out when the lights are on so i thought I'd snap a few shots of him, he's about 5.5" in size now.

    From the length and the shape of the body, it looks like some kind of whiptail catfish, will need a better focus shot to really identify him.

    Right now I am guessing Rineloricaria species
