Native to Africa and parts of the Middle East, it was reportedly brought into India through neighbouring countries during the 1990s for commercial fish farming. Farmers were attracted to it because it grows rapidly, survives in low-oxygen and polluted water, accepts inexpensive feed and can be raised in overcrowded ponds. However, its uncontrolled farming and spread soon became a serious ecological concern. Unlike India’s native Magur (Clarias magur), the African catfish is a large, highly adaptable predator. When floods, pond overflows or deliberate releases allow it to enter lakes, rivers and wetlands, it can feed on native fish, frogs, insects and other aquatic organisms. It also competes with indigenous fish for food and habitat. Because it can breathe atmospheric air and survive harsh conditions, controlling it after it enters a natural waterbody becomes extremely difficult. India prohibited the breeding and culture of African catfish in 1997, and courts and environmental authorities have repeatedly directed states to destroy illegal stocks and stop their transport and sale. Yet underground farming continues because the fish grows quickly and can be sold cheaply. Poorly maintained farms may also feed these fish slaughterhouse waste, poultry remains or other unhygienic materials—although such practices are not universal—creating additional concerns about sanitation, water pollution and food safety. In Tamil Nadu, illegal African catfish farms and sales threaten local ponds, irrigation tanks, wetlands and the native fish species that support traditional fishing communities. Once this predator escapes during heavy rain or flooding, the damage can extend far beyond a single farm. This video investigates how African catfish reached India, why the government banned it, how it continues to be cultivated, and what its spread could mean for India and Tamil Nadu.
