Neoceratodus forsteri
Australian Lungfish, Queensland Lungfish, Barramunda, Burnett Salmon
Neoceratodus forsteri is a primitive fish species notable for its long evolutionary history and lung-based breathing capability. It can withstand brief periods outside water, due to its ability to gulp air. It's a protected species and keeping them in aquariums requires special permits in many regions. Captive care specialists should provide a spacious environment to simulate wild conditions, promote their well-being, and cater to their potential size and growth.
