haha i took it out the bag and took a quick photo before i put it in the tank for id purposes, its dark stripes go a red colour and the lighter bits are creamy almost see through colour, there are loads of different types of bumblebee cat :L quite hard to identify it to a specific one, looks most like a giant bumblebee :) thanks for the help :)

Most likely Pseudomystus siamensis or possibly Pseudomystus heokhuii
