we raise other fish but what make catfish to be the most raised one are:
1.It has a wide pan-african distribution which even extend to Europe,Asia etc.i.e it can be found nearly in all nation of the world.
2. It has a unique character which is known as Sympatrical attitude which means it can decide to live,survive and adapt itself to an environment which isn't it's natural habitat just in pity of any family members (e. g Clarias anguilarus) .
3, It can convert anything in the water where it found itself to food. I. e. it adapt itself to supplementary feeding.
4.It has high market value with low feed conversion ratio mostly at a short or limited time.
5.It has a higher demand, diversify taste in processing and very attractive most especially in the immediate environment.
Just to mention a few of its chritaria of uniqueness to others types of fish.
