Think your talking about a paroon shark? Witch is in fact a catfish. I know nothing about these only they get very big and will eat almost anything in the tank id say wink Here's a vid

Mossy on one of the irish forums is building a 12 foot tank at the moment for his two pangasius and two pacus. Th epangs are about 16 - 18 inches in length so far. Next time i am down in his gaff i will take a vid and post it up. Very skittish fish and are for ever banging into the glass, this is the biggest killer for them, headbangers.
