Description
Gulper Catfish Asterophysus Batrachus 10cm
“Meet the mesmerizing Gulper Catfish (Asterophysus batrachus), a striking species originating from the Amazon Basin. Known for its unique appearance with elongated body and distinctive pattern, this nocturnal predator adds an exotic flair to any aquarium.
Feeding on live or frozen foods like bloodworms and shrimp, this carnivorous beauty enjoys a diet rich in protein. Given its predatory nature, suitable tank mates should be chosen carefully to avoid smaller fish becoming potential meals.
While generally peaceful, the Gulper Catfish can display territorial behavior, especially when not provided with sufficient hiding spots. An experienced aquarist who understands their requirements for ample space, dimly lit environments, and proper tank setup is ideal for caring for this species.
Maintaining stable water parameters with a pH between 6.0 and 7.5, temperature range of 75-82°F (24-28°C), and soft to moderately hard water is recommended to ensure their well-being.
Add a touch of the Amazon to your aquarium with the Gulper Catfish—a captivating yet rewarding addition for experienced hobbyists seeking an intriguing aquatic companion.”
