Pangasius is one of the top 10 most consumed fish worldwide. Typically, the fish called Pangasius actually refers to basa fish, which is a species of catfish. Pangasius can more generally refer to  several species of a type of medium to large shark catfish.

 

Whether it’s referring to the specific fish call basa, or used as a more general term, Pangasius is NOT a kosher fish. This is confirmed by Chabad, who receives their information from the Orthodox Union.
