It can't possibly be the wels cat.
Nice.. My guess would have been Silurus Glanis... Only cause i first thought Walking cat.... But your guess is much smaller than the fish i thought to be after i found it wasn't a walking..
Silurus get really! Big!!
First of all, it looks completely different and second (and most important of all), they're almost never imported. Tell me where have you seen a wels cat in the US. It's a very well known fish, but it's just not available in the pet trade at all.
I do know ONE person who has an albino one, but he's a very very dedicated fish keeper. He didn't just "stumble" upon it by accident like USMCTanker.
