An unusual, large growing catfish found in most larger bodies of freshwater in Southeast Asia, the Apogon Catfish (Phalacronotus apogon) or Apogon Sheathfish is an active open water species, typically found in rivers with moderate to strong flow and undertakes large migrations in the wild influenced by the region’s annual flooding pattern. A predator, they are something of a generalist feeder and will typically accept frozen and prepared foods. In an appropriately large aquarium, they are an impressive, showy fish which will rarely bother tankmates too large to be eaten and prefer at least moderate water movement.

The Alligator Gar is the largest living species of gar (Family Lepisosteidae) and a true freshwater monster fish, native to the temperate and subtropical waters of Eastern and Central North America. Like all gar, they are predators, feeding on fish, frogs, and vertebrates – anything they can fit in their large tooth-filled mouths. In the wild, the fish can easily grow to the enormous size of over 6 feet in length and are considered a sport fish throughout much of their range. Given their relatively fast growth rate (especially in captivity), massive adult size and space requirements, this species is realistically not suited for aquariums but rather large custom installations, public aquaria, or specialized ponds in suitable climates.

The Bolt Catfish or Jelly Band Catfish is a beautifully marked, active swimming fish known from the middle and upper Amazon and its tributaries in Peru and Ecuador. A resident of open, typically fast-moving waters in the wild, this catfish spends much of its time swimming actively and exploring its surroundings searching out prey with its long sensitive barbels. An aggressive and somewhat territorial fish, the Bolt Catfish will harass and attack conspecifics and similar-looking fish, especially catfish but will generally leave other fast tankmates too large to be eaten alone. As an adult, this fish will require a sizeable aquarium with plenty of open swimming space and moderate to strong current but makes for a unique display fish due to its active nature and attractive purple, yellow, and silver coloration.
