Thai Glass Catfish

Thai Glass Catfish, also known as the Ghost Glass Catfish or Glass Catfish, is a transparent freshwater catfish species native to slow-moving rivers and streams in Thailand and parts of the Mekong Basin. Its clear, see-through body reveals its skeleton, giving it an almost ghost-like appearance in the aquarium.

Key Care Points:

• Behavior & Swimming: Peaceful and schooling by nature, best kept in groups of 6 or more. They are midwater swimmers that glide gracefully in synchrony, often preferring dim lighting and calm surroundings.

•  

• Lifespan: Typically 6–8 years with proper care

• Max Size: 4-6 inches.

• Growth Rate: Moderate; juveniles grow steadily and reach maturity within 8–10 months.

The Thai Glass Catfish’s transparency and graceful schooling behavior make it one of the most fascinating and elegant additions to peaceful community tanks.
