I believe it is Maruliodes.

Marulius has an ocell in the tail fin.

Hoe I'm not mixing them up....

Maruliodes will grow until how big?(sorry for my grammar)

Hi.
That is Channa Marulioides.
They can get to around 26" and nice and thick.

I have a bonded pair that are both around 20". I got them last December at about 3".

Cute lil' guy you got there. Definitely a Marulioides! Wonderful 5-band/flower specimen although the last band looks like it could split and give you a 6-bander. Keep us updated!
