Vibrant blue Dwarf ‘Walking’ Snakehead fish
They can be distinguished from all other species of snakeheads by its colour pattern, its number of vertebrae, dorsal and anal fin rays, and lateral-line scale. They seem more snake-like than fish-like. This snakehead fish is able to breathe atmospheric air and can even survive on land for up to four days. Its movements on land may appear more cumbersome than a smoothly slithering snake, but this species can writhe and wriggle its way up to ¼ mile on wet land between bodies of water. Because of its aggressive traits, National Geographic has dubbed snakehead fish as “Fishzilla”.
