Ariidae
= ( air EE id dee )
This family contains catfish from marine
and freshwater habitats. A few practice an unusual mode of
reproduction of mouthbrooding. Not popular catfishes for the
home aquarium as some grow too big and boisterous with a rather
dull silver colouration, but a few of the smaller varieties
can be kept with larger tankmates. Most will need salt added
to their water as
they grow larger. |
