Asian Sun Catfish Or Two Spot Catfish?

[Ellie325]

Hi,
I bought this fish as a 'two spot catfish' what I thought to be a mystus bimaculatus. It has now way outgrown the average size for a mystus bimaculatus according to the internet sites I have read, and has much yellower colouring. I am hoping I have not bought an asian sun catfish by mistake, as I can't tell the difference.

no an asian sun cat only has one spot on each side.
it doesnt have the spot on the tail, the whiskers are smaller, & they look more like bullheads.

looks similar to an eclipse catfish
