CATFISHES
Catfishes are Egglayers. They have whiskers, just like cats, and
that's how they got their name. But not all fish with whiskers are
Catfish. Catfishes are found almost universally where other fishes
exist, and they show many adaptions that are found in almost no
other fishes. Some Catfish swim upside down at times. Catfishes as
a rule are very hardy and adaptable. Most are nocturnal and do best
in subdued light.
