Need a Scientific Name

Can anybody give me a scientific name for this guy or even just some info on him? I bought him as a One Lined Pim Cat. He was about an inch long when I got him and he's grown about a half an inch a month or so. Now he's about four inches and seems to have stopped growing. He's pretty active and cruises around the bottom of the tank constantly looking for leftovers from the Firemouth and Jewels.
Thanks,
Kristen

Oh my gosh! Thank you so much! That's him alright. When he was smaller, he was VERY pink. My kids called him the Naked Racoon Cat because of his black mask and pink color.
Since I put him in this tank with the bottom painted black, or maybe because he's older now, he's gotten darker. I really like him. He's a wonderful little catfish.
So he's not a Pim Cat at all then. No wonder I couldnt' find any info on him in that section.
