Candiru parasitic on other fish. Catfish feels the stream of exhaled water and other fish swims over them to the gills. He rastopyrivat spiky protuberances, and feeds on the blood of the blood vessels in the gills, why was nicknamed "the Brazilian vampire."

Local residents fear that catfish, because he can swim into the anus, vagina or - in the case of small specimens - in the nude human penis to the bladder. It feeds on the blood and the surrounding tissues, which can cause severe pain. The defeat of the man is extremely rare. Kandirý finds his victims by impurities in the water of ammonia released from the gills of fish during respiration, or in the case of a man from the urethra.

Without surgery often does not remove the catfish. In most cases, operations are no consequences. Traditionally used the juices of two plants (in particular genipa), which are injected directly into the place of attachment of the fish, which thus dies and decomposes. Without medical help defeat catfish kandirý can lead to death. Catfish always die, so how to get out of the human body can not, because man is not a typical host kandirý.
Known for another kind of catfish (Tridensimilis brevis), which has a similar behavior.
