I don't think it's a "catfish" but it does look like one, doesn't it?! Ok here is your clue: It is a "ray-finned" fish.
And a more revealed pic.

Kinda reminds me of a cave angelfish, definitely has to have adapted to no light to have no color or eyes.

Ah, I think I have it now.
This is gonna be a real toughie for anyone who hasn't been around a bit. This fish used to be in the hobby about 40 years ago, but was banned when it got slapped with protection laws. The shortness of the barbels of this specimen was fooling me, since they are normally much longer.

Maybe.
I could be wrong.
If this fish is african, then I'm probably right.

However... this could be a fake-out; this might be a young juvenile of something much more common.

Oh, well so much for that. It is a blind cave fish, though, right? I thought it was a Blind Barb, but now I got nothing.
