The rest of the article is pretty sad though, it says numbers of catfish in the Mekong delta have declined to 95%...

The Mekong River is starting to get really polluted... because of the industrial activities in China I think. The polluted water from China drains down into the Mekong.

That's one huge fish.. I think you can keep him in a 5gal.. no less though lol:grinyes:

Unfortunately, it is my thumb. Was born with both left and right looking like that. Maybe the "locks" didn't develop properly :)

BTW, are these giant catfish endangered?? :confused:

they are now... 95-99% reduction? i'd say they were endangered. the species isnt endangered, but it takes MANY years for catfish to reach that size.
