More about Asian redtail catfish

The Asian redtail catfish is a striking fish known for its dark body contrasted with a vibrant red tail. Originating from Southeast Asia, it features an elongated body with a pronounced dorsal fin. This species, while eye-catching, is not as commonly known or widespread in the aquarium hobby, partly due to its large size and specific care requirements.
