Fishermen in Malaysia show off their catch of catfish, often known as ‘janitor fish’. They’re an invasive species here and they’re destroying local ecosystems and displacing local fish. In Malaysia, the catfish is called “Bandaraya Fish”, scientifically known as Pterygoplichthys. It is native to South America and is popular among aquarium fish breeders worldwide. #catfish #fishing #malaysia #invasivespecies
