The eel-tailed catfish is a freshwater fish with a large head, thick lips and a tail that narrows like an eel's. It lives in the Murray-Darling river system in eastern Australia. Its fins carry sharp, venomous spines, so it is important to know it when you are in the water.1

1

Males and females both help: the parents guard the nest of eggs until they hatch.1

2

The nest is built one or two weeks before spawning, when water reaches 20–24 °C.1

3

Juveniles often gather in groups, although adults usually live alone.1

4

Its populations in the southern Murray-Darling have declined so much that most are extinct or nearly so.1
