概述
玻璃猫(Kryptopterus vitreolus)以透明身体和紧密群游著称。它温和但胆小,至少六尾同养更合适;长期贸易误名较多,选鱼时应同时核对体形、产地和身份。
分布与栖息地
已知分布在克拉地峡以南、流入泰国湾的泰国半岛沿海河流,以及泰国东南部豆蔻山脉发源的少数河流。偏好缓流或静水,既见于浑褐水,也见于酸性黑水。
饲养环境
用丰富布景、水面或浮水植物提供遮挡,光线不宜太强。干落叶等可增加自然感并释放单宁,适用于黑水风格环境。必须等缸成熟稳定再放鱼,它对水化学变化较敏感。
食性与喂食
天然可能摄食小型无脊椎动物和浮游动物。缸中会接受适口干粮,但仍应每天搭配丰年虾无节幼体、小型水蚤、格林达微虫等小活饵或冷冻饵。
习性与混养
至少六尾组成同种群体,过少难以满足其明显的群居需求。温和小鱼较适合作伴,避开大型、强势和活动过猛的鱼,以免抢食或持续惊扰。它可能吃鱼卵或极小鱼苗,因此不能视为护苗伙伴。
繁殖
繁殖尚无可靠记录。
补充说明
本种直到 2013 年才以现用学名正式明确,之前许多旧书和贸易记录使用其他近似种名称。透明身体并非只有这一种具有,不能作为唯一鉴定依据。
分布范围有限且长期受到观赏贸易采集,已有研究指出需要进一步调查野外种群状况;这并不代表已经有确定的受威胁等级。

Overview
The transparent glass catfish, Kryptopterus vitreolus, is strongly social and tends to school closely. Keep at least six together. Its gentle but timid character requires careful companion choice, and decades of trade misidentification make accurate identification useful.
Distribution & habitat
Known sites include Gulf-draining coastal basins south of the Isthmus of Kra and several southeastern Thai rivers arising in the Cardamom Mountains. It favors slow or standing water and has been collected in both turbid brown water and acidic blackwater.
Aquarium setup
Provide substantial cover and surface vegetation to soften the light. Dried leaves can create a blackwater-style setting and release tannins. Introduce fish only after the aquarium is biologically mature, since changes in water chemistry can be poorly tolerated.
Diet & feeding
Its natural food probably consists of small invertebrates and zooplankton. Suitable dry food is accepted, but also offer daily small live or frozen items such as Artemia nauplii, small water fleas, and grindal worms.
Behaviour & compatibility
A minimum group of six supports its strong social needs. Choose small peaceful companions and avoid large, robust, or excessively active fishes that could dominate feeding or keep it nervous. It may take eggs or tiny fry, so do not assume it is harmless in a breeding aquarium.
Breeding
Breeding is unrecorded.
Notes
Its current identity was resolved in 2013, so older books and trade records often use names belonging to other species. Transparency alone is insufficient for identification because a few relatives share it.
Researchers highlighted the need to investigate wild populations because the range is restricted and collection for trade is intensive. This concern should not be mistaken for an established conservation category.
