Here's a few pics to demonstrate how large this fish is now. I am going to say it is the only fish I have officially over the 1' mark now lol. The vulture came next to him and he's nearly a full inch longer than the vulture now. I think He will have to go in the pond and I will be putting the sperata in the tank later this week on friday or saturday unless i find time before then. You know I will be doing vids too lol. Just look how thick this guy is compared to when i first got him lol

great growth and it looks thick! What I did was feed mine with silversides BUT I cut open the silversides and stuffed them with pellets so it got double the amount of food ahhaha.

As we touched upon before, I think we can trust Wes Wong on the ID but never hurts to pay attention to the topic. Here is a nice tip from Heok Hee Ng how to tell S. glanis from S. asotus: http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=38117#p260820
