Kryptopterus minor is a small species of Asian glass catfish from the Kapuas River basin in Borneo, Indonesia. [2] [3] [4] [5] Until 2013, the ghost catfish (K. vitreolus) was included in K. minor. The true K. minor is rarely (if ever) seen in the aquarium trade, while K. vitreolus is common. [2] [3] [4]
