Saratoga (Leichardti)

Scientific name: Scleropages leichardti

Other common name: Spotted Barramundi

  • A carnivorous fish.
  • Best to stock on their own as they are very territorial and aggressive toward other fish.
  • Commonly 50-60 cm, to 90 cm & 4 Kg
  • Not generally considered as a table fish.
  • Tolerates temperature from 18°c – 27°c and pH range between 6.8 – 8.
  • A great sport fish for anglers, they are spectacular jumpers.  For this reason, if kept in an aquarium, there needs to be a suitably heavy lid to prevent them from jumping out, and care must be exercised when cleaning the tank.
