Thats one of my Wallego leeri.
Here are some pics taken a few months ago.
Sorry the tank glass was so dirty but I had just fed the tank a lot mackeral to lure the Wallegos up from the 9 foot deep level they normally hunt in to take these pictures. Notice the Pangasius sanitswongi in the background of the 3rd pic. He is a measured 22" long and had to be caught out of the tank this summer and placed in my outdoor ponds due to aggression.
Wallego leeri huh...it has to be the most amazing freshwater fish ive ever seen. i just love the way its tail thins out just like a CK but its front portion is as thick as ever. truly a beautiful specimen. im surprised it can catch all the smaller fish in the tank. he looks fat and slow

He ate a school of 12" oscars overnight about the first month the tank was set up.
He ambushes them floating arounf like the goodyear blimp. But when he opens his mouth they just go right in. Also when he wants to attack he can cover 15 feet very fast.
The funny scene is watching my 4" Abramite nip his tail and then dash out of the way when he turns around to snap him up.
You know, I've always been more of an African Cichlid guy, but seeing these videos... That's pretty unbelievable.
