It looks kind of like a ropefish/reedfish but it's not as long.

I would guess a kind of bichir?

Wow it does look like it. It's going to be massive.

More specificly, a dinosaur Bichir

Now gonna be an adopted bichir. I found that it's been eating my tetras. Hopefully the fish store I got it from will take it back.
