Species Overview

Cá chẽm

The barramundi is a large, catadromous predator native to the Indo-West Pacific. It is a protandrous hermaphrodite, beginning life as male and transitioning to female after several years. Highly prized in both sport fishing and aquaculture.

Cá chình Châu Âu

The European eel undertakes one of nature's most remarkable migrations, traveling 5,000 km from European rivers to the Sargasso Sea to spawn and die. Despite centuries of study, its breeding grounds were only recently confirmed.
