Información del producto

🐅 Tiger Shovelnose Catfish / TSN Catfish – (Pseudoplatystoma tigrinum)

The Tiger Shovelnose Catfish is a massive, powerful predatory species known for its iconic tiger-like striping and long, shovel-shaped snout. Native to the Amazon and Orinoco River basins, this stunning fish is a true river giant that demands respect — and a huge aquarium. It's a showpiece species, often kept by experienced hobbyists who can provide the space and filtration it requires.
