Glassfish -The exceptional creation

**Glassfish**, also called **glass perch**, any of about 24 small Indo-Pacific fishes of the family Chandidae (or Ambassidae, order Perciformes), most with more or less transparent bodies.

Sometimes placed with the snooks and Nile perch in the family **Centropomidae**, glassfishes are found in freshwater and in the sea along coasts and river mouths. They are deep-bodied and have a deep cleft between the spiny anterior and the soft-rayed posterior portions of the dorsal fin.

The genus *Chanda* includes most of the glassfishes. Three are familiar to home aquarists: *C. ranga* (or *C. lala*), sometimes calledIndian glassfish, a popular Asian species 5 cm (2 inches) long with blue-edged fins; *C. buruensis,* a 5-centimetre Indonesian species; and *C. nama,* a 10-centimetre fish of India and Asia. The name glassfish is also given to certain other unrelated, semitransparent fishes, including the icicle fish.
