The Upside Down Catfish is a cool and unusual addition to your aquarium. It only grows to about 3 inches when fully grown. Known for swimming upside down, this unique behavior helps the fish find food on the water’s surface and under leaves or rocks. They love hiding, so be sure to include caves, driftwood, or plenty of plants in their tank.
These peaceful fish are perfect for a community tank and mix well with other species. A 29-gallon tank with a soft bottom and ample hiding spots will make them feel at home. Furthermore, they’re easy to care for and enjoy a varied diet. Whether you’re new to fishkeeping or have years of experience, the Upside Down Catfish is a fun and rewarding choice!
