Batman Crested Loach
Pygocentrus nattereri
This mature freshwater fish inhabits rivers, lakes, floodplain channels, and seasonally flooded forests of South America. It eats fish, aquatic invertebrates, seeds, and fruits that fall into the water. Its deep body and powerful jaw muscles allow swift biting attacks, while its red underside becomes more pronounced as it matures.
