Ever wondered why the upside‑down catfish swims belly‑up? It’s not confused — it’s clever! This quirky fish has evolved to swim upside down so it can feed more easily at the water’s surface and graze on algae along the underside of rocks and plants. Native to the Congo River Basin, the upside‑down catfish’s unusual style is a brilliant survival trick, and one of the many wonders of the aquatic world. Come see this fascinating behaviour in action at the National Aquarium of New Zealand! | Nationa
