Leopard bush fish Profile

The Leopard Bush Fish, also known as the Leopard Ctenopoma or Spotted Climbing Perch, is a striking species with a body adorned in a mottled mix of yellow, brown, and black spots, resembling the pattern of a leopard. Native to Central Africa, particularly in the Congo River basin, this fish has a laterally compressed, somewhat leaf-like body that allows it to blend seamlessly into its natural habitat, often among dense vegetation and leaf litter. In the aquarium hobby, it is appreciated for its exotic appearance and unique behavior, making it a popular choice for enthusiasts who seek something beyond the ordinary in freshwater fish.
