Wat's the name of this fish ?

[benn371]

Well, I got him like 4 weeks ago but literally I can see him grow just that he's probably growing like 1-2cm a day! cause in 4 weeks his growth rate is highly visible.. The petstore guys tells me its a spotted catfish but I am its not cause when I gogled it, it was another fish so any idea what's the name of this weird fish I've got here ?

Clarias batrachus. Grows large and will antagonize every tankmate in with it.

great fish. love the markings. had one back when they were legal in US. definitely a loner. no tankmates will survive with these monsters. enjoy!
