Ctenopoma Fasciolatum

Ctenopoma Fasciolatum

The African climbing perches (sometimes referred to as “bush fish”) are labyrinth fish, and so are closely related to the much more familiar gouramis and bettas, which all come from Asia. Although they have never been truly popular, the African climbing perches of the genus Ctenopoma are consistently imported and offered for sale to aquarists with an eye for something a bit different. Like their Asian cousins, Ctenopoma are generally hardy and easy to keep, but there are some things the aquarist needs to take into consideration before introducing some into a community tank. But if you take the time to help them settle into your aquarium, you will quickly find these to be fascinating fishes worthy of a bit of extra effort.
