Does it have barbels?
Does it swim at the bottom or in the middle of the tank?

can you post a pic that includes the whole fish?

atm i'm leening towards it being a Kryptopterus species
 
Better pics would help, but maybe a Schilbe?
What size is the fish now?

appears to be a striped raphael catfish (Platydoras costatus)
FYI it's now been recognised that the Platydoras seen in the aquarium trade is in fact P. armulatus, not P. costatus.

Schilbe may be the one, he is 2.5 inches and swims lower and middle of tank. doesnt do much swimming tho. just floats about
