Appears to be a live one. You may need to wait for it to lose juvenile colors first.

You are going to need a 75 gallon tank to house it in, regardless what your friend may have told you. A 55 is not fine.

I'd say its a low grade Kamfa. Only time will tell though. It could turn out to be a stunner.
Did your friend get it at Petsmart? That's what the generally have there now.
Not all of them have to have a 75. But it would be better. I had one that was barley 10" and would have been fine in a 55 IMO. I kept it in a 75 though.
