Obligate air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Adults are generally found at sea, but young inhabit river mouths, inner bays, and mangrove forests. In freshwater, they occur in rivers, lagoons, lakes, and swampy backwaters (Ref. 2847, 44894). Tolerate a wide pH range (5.2-9.1) (Ref. 44894) and salinities from 0 to 100. Mainly diurnal (Ref. 7017). Predaceous, feeding mainly on fishes and crustaceans (Ref. 5213). Breed offshore, possibly throughout the year. Larvae are transparent and resemble larval eels (Ref. 13337), but with a forked tail (Ref. 167). Juveniles commonly enter freshwater (Ref. 44894, 48635) in clear or turbid water (Ref. 44894). Known to breath air, rising regularly to the surface to do so. Cultured in ponds, the fry being sourced from the coasts (Ref. 7050). Popular angling fish (Ref. 3969). Edible but not esteemed (Ref. 3969). Caught by gill nets, seines, and trawls, and by hook-and-line; marketed fresh and dried salted (Ref. 10982).
成魚是通常發現於的海洋,但是幼魚居住於河口,海灣內與紅樹林森林。 在淡水中,他們出現在河,潟湖,湖與沼澤的洄水區。 (參考文獻 2847,44894) 容忍寬的酸鹼度範圍 (5.2-9.1)(參考文獻 44894) 與鹽度從 0 到 100 。 主要日行性.(參考文獻 7017) 食肉的, 主要捕食魚與甲殼動物.(參考文獻 5213) 繁殖外海, 可能地全年度。 仔魚是透明的而且與幼蟲的鰻魚 (參考文獻 13337) 相似, 但是有一個分叉的尾部.(參考文獻 167) 稚魚通常在清澈或混濁的水進入淡水 (參考文獻 44894,48635) 。 (參考文獻 44894) 已知.呼吸空氣, 經常地對表面升起這麼做。 養殖在距離海岸被來源的池塘,魚苗中.。 (參考文獻 7050) 受歡迎的垂釣魚種.(參考文獻 3969) 可食用的但是不讚賞.(參考文獻 3969)
