Hi!
Well the genus is for sure a Sturisoma, now regarding the species maybe you shall wait a bit and let it grow a bit so it will be easier the determine.
2 possibilities: either S. aureum or S. festivum...
they are usually the most commonly find in shop around the world!
Cheers

Hi!
they grow up to 8 inches ( without the tail's filament!!)
Check in the Shane world section and in Catfish of the month, you'll get plenty of information regarding keeping, feeding, breeding these...
By the way welcome
Cheers
