White Sheatfish catfish

[KiiNGGiiNGER]

Was looking at the catfish list from the distributor that the store I work at orders fish from and one was called a White Sheatfish catfish? And it wasnt too cheap, anyone have any guesses as to what it could be?

Don't know for certain without a few pictures. Ompok maybe? Wallago?

Thats where im at too because they dont include pictures. I wouldnt think it would be a $70 fish if it was an ompok but I would also hope they would also put some extra info if it was something as massive as a wallago. I am just hoping to get some ideas here and see if anyone else has seen a fish going by the same name.

I expect that it was likely Belodontichthys dinema.

Hmm damn thats a very cool fish. Well thanks for the info!
