About the Glass Catfish

Name: Glass Catfish (Kryptopterus bicirrhis)

Max Size: Glass Catfish can grow up to 3.5 inches in length, making them a relatively small and slender species.

Recommend pH: Glass Catfish prefer slightly acidic to neutral water conditions with a recommended pH range of 6.0-7.5.

Recommended Temperature (Β°F): Maintain the aquarium temperature for Glass Catfish between 75-82Β°F (24-28Β°C), providing a tropical environment.

Diet: Glass Catfish are omnivorous and primarily eat small live or frozen foods, such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, daphnia, and other small insects. They also accept high-quality sinking pellets and flakes, as well as vegetable-based foods.

Temperament: Glass Catfish are peaceful and non-aggressive, making them suitable for community aquariums with other peaceful fish species. They are shy and prefer to be kept in groups to feel secure.

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Glass Catfish are schooling fish, and they should be kept in groups of at least five or more. In larger schools, they feel more confident and exhibit their natural schooling behavior, which adds to their beauty in the aquarium.

Possible Types of Tank Mates: Glass Catfish can be kept with other peaceful and non-aggressive community fish species. They coexist well with tetras, rasboras, dwarf cichlids, and other small, non-nippy fish.

Behavior: Glass Catfish are known for their translucent appearance and unique forked tail, which gives them a graceful and almost ghost-like appearance. They are generally active during the day and prefer to stay in the mid to bottom levels of the aquarium.

Fun Fact: Glass Catfish are named for their transparent bodies, which allow you to see their internal organs, including their skeletal structure. They have a fascinating appearance, and when kept in a group, they create a mesmerizing effect as they swim together in a coordinated manner. The transparency of their bodies makes them an intriguing and captivating addition to any well-maintained community aquarium.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
