can african brown kinifes actually see or do they use the electric sensor

I'm by no means an expert on this fish but I think they do see some what, at least shadows. The electrical pulses they emit I believe are for mating purposes and a defensive tactic. I do however know they will suface for air and produce bell like sounds, they also will sound like the are barking from time to time. I hope this helps.
