Spotted lungfish Profile

The Spotted lungfish, distinguished by its unique elongated body and spotted appearance, primarily showcases a mix of grey and brown colors peppered with distinctive spots. This species hails from various freshwater habitats in Africa, adapting remarkably well to environments with low oxygen levels. Characterized by a snake-like form and equipped with both lungs and gills, it stands out for its ability to breathe air directly. While intriguing due to its prehistoric lineage and unique physiological adaptations, the Spotted lungfish is not commonly encountered in the aquarium hobby, often due to its large size and specific care requirements.
