Alright. I may have goofed. I bought a black fin shark (catfish), thinking that they do well in either fresh or brackish water. I may have even seen that on AC. But now I am wondering...Is this wrong? I can't really find anything that tells me for sure. I need to find out before I get too invested in this guy. I am not really wanting a brackish aquarium.
fresh when small, then brackish as they grow, which is actually pretty quickly.
try looking for "arius seemani" ...... www.planetcatfish.com
i have also seen them called "arius jordani" but i think the name's wrong.

maybe a superseded name?
