Hi can anyone tell me what catfish this is I have had him for about a year now and it has grown double his size since I have had him, can you also tell me what sex it is if possible and what length they grow too??

Looks like Glyptoperichthys scrophus, the chocolate/rhino pleco. Expect it to grow to about 18" long.

I'm afraid it's quite difficult to sex them.
