The leopard bush fish (Ctenopoma acutirostre ), also known as leopard bushfish, spotted ctenopoma, leopard ctenopoma, spotted climbing perch, spotted leaf fish, African leaf fish, spotted cichlid or spotted bushfish, is a freshwater fish. It is part of the unique Anabantidae family, that is freshwater fish that originate from South East Asia and Africa, and is therefore related to the Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens). It is relatively common in the aquarium industry and is often sold as a beginners' "oddball" fish.
