The black bullhead or black bullhead catfish (Ameiurus melas) is a species of bullhead catfish. Like other bullhead catfish, it has the ability to thrive in waters that are low in oxygen, brackish, turbid, and/or very warm. [2] It also has barbels located near its mouth, a broad head, spiny fins, and no scales.
The flathead catfish cannot live in full-strength seawater (which is about 35 parts per thousand or about 35 grams of salt per liter of water), but it can survive in 10 ppt for a while and thrive in up to about 5 ppt. [12] Flathead catfish are a benthic fish species meaning they are a fish which prefers to lay on the bottom of a body of water.
