 Glass Fish Baby?!

Hello, I’ve slowly been adding ghost catfish into my tank, so now i have 6 ghost catfish and 2 emerald green catfish, or so i thought.
i’ve come back from a 3 week program out of state and now i’ve found out that i have 7 ghosties, with 1 about 1.5 inches long. I do not recognize it and could it be that i have accidently breed a few? I have researched it and there have been very few known records of ghost catfish ever being known to have breed in captivity. I have no idea how it happened but could i get the input of some other fish enthusiasts? thank you

well from my past 3 years with fancy guppies, they stay in middle and top of tank.

also, i have 2 batches of eggs on the side of my tank. one has 5, the other 7. are those emerald catfish or glass catfish eggs do you know?

i did look up a little on them but the obvious lack of breeding information on glass catfish didn’t lead me to anything. they’re small clear eggs and they’re disappearing. idk but the eggs left on the glass look dead... further help anyone?

I’ve just returned from a 2 week trip out of the states and i’ve once again been very surprised. I had found the corpses of 2 of my glass fish (stress i think cause the guy i left my fish with had the aquarium near his always playing radio) but what shocked me was that i was expecting to find only 5 left but i had 6! it’s pretty wierd now cause i have 3 smaller ones and 3 adult sized ones.
