I've posted about it here on DC a couple times. It's a catfish relative, grown in rivers in Vietnam. Apparently the French are nuts about it, and it is a recent addition to the States. Very inexpensive as compared to other fish. It's quite nice in the microwave. I also smoked it on my stovetop smoker, and it was very moist and tasty.
It comes in individually flash frozen packs in a bigger bag. It is a farmed fish, but from what I've read, pretty safe. Should be really good in fish tacos.
Sorry, probably TMI...
