In the aquarium

A. pectinifrons is a popular aquarium fish and is often sold as the spotted raphael catfish or spotted talking catfish.[1] It is recommended, due to the spines on this fish which would tear up a conventional net, that it is preferable to move these fish by hand. These fish need a dark refuge to hide in during the day.[2][1]

It is one of a few species of fish that make clicks that are audible to humans outside of an aquarium itself.[3]
