Clarias pseudoleiacanthus is a freshwater catfish from Southeast Asia. It has special organs for breathing air, which allows it to survive in water with a small amount of oxygen.
Clarias pseudoleiacanthus differs from other catfishes with special respiratory organs that allow it to live even in very dirty water. It is important for nature because it controls the population of small animals and serves as food for large predators.
