I think he realized that it probably was not, but figured it looked cool and for $7 go for it. Heck at least he did not pay the price for a gulper and get duped.

hey there, I just picked one of those guys up about a month and a half ago. There was a long discussion over the species and it is an 0mpok bimaculatus, as identified by several members I really respect, including necrocanis. Its not a wallago as you will notice the mouth does not extend beyond/behind the eye. Also, note the two darker spots, one on the front and one near his tail. Apparently, as I have been doing some research on them, the scientific community is looking break the currently included specimens down into further specification.

Anyways, he looks great. What's you temp, pH, hardness, etc, and what are you feeding him? Just curious as you are the only other person I know who has one.

Yeah that is almost as funny as your grammar now isn't it ? :screwy::D

I was 99 percent sure it was not a gulper for the record. Its funny how many people read the first post and post right away. I paid 7 bucks and its still an awesome cat at any price. He is doing well and I like him a lot great personality.
 
Ruh Roh... is there some tension between the 2K Posters :D :grinno:

Doesn't matter what it is for that price it would be in my tank as well :ROFL: ... I think I'm going to need more space for my Catfish list soon :naughty:

Tomorrow afternoon is going to be a "shopping day" I think :grinyes:
