You must be talking about the Glass Knifefish AKA Green Knifefish AKA Eigenmannia virescens.

There's nothing much to keeping these fish. They are relatively hardy. However, they may not except pellets and flakes, so be warned. Also, these fish also get relatively big.

Do an Images search over at Yahoo and you'll come up quite a few good pictures.

They get about 18" long from what I've read.

They are peaceful, yet slightly predatory, shoalers that will only accept live/frozen food.

Or would it be the Glass catfish you are referring to?
