Article Synopsis
  • Fish in tropical regions face dangerous conditions like low oxygen and air exposure during dry seasons.
  • This study focused on the air-breathing behavior and oxygen responses of armored catfish, specifically looking at their blood and tissue metabolism under various oxygen levels.
  • The catfish showed active air-breathing behaviors, particularly during hypoxia, and displayed adaptations in their blood for efficient oxygen transport, relying on anaerobic metabolism when conditions worsened.
