If you want a middle-dwelling schooling catfish, this transparent swimmer is for you! The Asian Glass Catfish also called the Ghost Catfish or The Phantom Catfish is another bizarre creature you can see in aquaria. They're docile in nature but beware of smaller fishes, if it fits its mouth, it's food. 😅 This fish must be kept in school of 5-6 because they are easily intimidated and stressed with other bigger fish. They can be housed in a planted aquarium with no problem. Average size is 4-6 inc
