Dintlha
Scientists have tested artificial cover units made of terra cotta, and the fish have used them for breeding, guarding eggs and escaping predators.1
Males guard the eggs, and the young grow to roughly two inches long in their first two years.1
The invasive flathead catfish is a top predator in its rivers and has been found to prey on it.1
