That's an Amazonian Aripima AKA pirarucu, or paiche - they are unfortunately endangered due to over fishing and have been recorded up to 15' long. Prehistoric and good eating which is a bummer for them. What a beautiful fish were it still alive.

This is what they look like when alive - most have the red highlights on their scales that makes them that much prettier.
