Hard to tell, but looks almost like a gigantor Chinese Algae Eater.

Chinese algae eater, no doubt about it.

Be careful, one that size could cause considerable trouble for your other fish, especially other bottom feeders or flat, elongated fish. (Angelfish, Discus)

seriously?? why is that?? theres an albino cory an a big pleco in with him an like 10 mollies an a male betta they all seem happy as can be

Because they become VERY aggressive, and will suck the eyes/scales off of your other fish.

A lot of times they coexist for quite sometime with no problems, but personally I would not risk it.

Yep - like many fish, they're fine for a long time, then one night after lights out, they just go postal.
