Description
Akysis vespa originates from Burma. It is known so far only from the upper reaches of the Ataran river in the northern part of Burma. The Ataran rises in Thailand and empties in the Andaman sea. Akysis inhabits clear, fast moving streamlets with pebbly ground. In the aquarium it is much more active when good current is provided. It is a small species of catfish only reaching around 4cm total length making it ideal for smaller Aquariums or Biotopes.
