The dynamics of publication activities devoted to the climbing perch from
1969 to 2018 is analyzed. It is shown that sharp increases in the number
of publications at the turn of the millennium coincide with changes in
international and national strategies for tropical fish aquaculture, focusing
on cultivation of fast-growing native fish species and small farms support.
These programs have led to a surge in applied research and publications on
the climbing perch, as one of the most promising species. Unfortunately, some
of these papers have been published in journals that are unreliable according
to the criteria of contemporary science and contain controversial conclusions.
Certain consequences of these trends are noted and challenges outlined.
