Catfish at the National Aquarium of Denmark

At our Aquarium we are breeding catfish in natural surroundings with great success. We look at nature for help and use the knowledge we get from experiences in expeditions to the fishes natural habitat. We look at food items, breeding material types and structure etc.. We try to recreate what we have learned in the wild. We try to simulate the natural surroundings of the fish. We even have predators which hunt the juveniles so only the best adapted survive like in the wild.
