The Glass Catfish or '''Ghost Fish''' (''Kryptopterus bicirrhis'') is a transparent Freshwater Aquarium Fish . Body lengths can range up to 15 centimetres (6 inches), but are usually less in aquarium specimens. Native to Southeast Asia , these Catfish prefer tanks with open swimming areas with a moderate current, and planted areas to provide shelter. Timid fish, they should always be kept as a group, and can be kept with other fish species of similar size and temperament. Glass Catfish are highly sensitive to changes in water quality and PH . The fish have a reputation for being finicky eaters; they prefer live food such as Mosquito Larva e, but can be weaned to flake food with time. They are different from other catfish because they live in the mid - upper region of the body of water. They are transparent and most of their gut is located near the head. REFERENCES |
