How do catfish give birth in water?

Catfish do not give birth in the traditional sense; instead, they lay eggs. Female catfish typically deposit eggs in nests, which can be constructed in various locations such as on the substrate or within crevices. After laying the eggs, the male often fertilizes them and may stay to guard the nest until the eggs hatch, ensuring the safety of the developing fry in the water. This process helps ensure the survival of the young catfish in their aquatic environment.

How long do catfish remain alive out of water?

Fish have a resportory system that in comparaison has about the same limits as most living things. Its like me asking how long can a human stay under water. there are a few exceptions of creatures that can last for a long amount of time in a diffrent enviroment. but that is based upon lung size and the gas exchange and the energy/metabolism of the gas being used. Catfish 1-4mins tho. beyond 2min is pushing it for large older fish. 12 min's has happened before tho that i have seen (note the tank broke and water was in the carpet) .
