; sötvatten bentopelagisk. Tropical
Africa: endemic to Lake Bermin, Cameroon (Ref. 52307, 81260).
Size / Vikt / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 12.6 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 26738)
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 14 - 16; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt) : 11 - 12; Taggstrålar i analfenan: 3; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 7 - 9. Diagnosis: lower pharyngeal jaw slender and gracile, with a reduced dentigerous plate; gill filaments of first arch short (ca. 10% of head length); 13-16 fleshy gill rakers on first arch; anterior gill rakers not markedly reduced in size (Ref. 81260).
Prefers to live at depths greater than 8 m; seems to have adapted to greater depths and reduced dissolved oxygen levels; feeds mainly upon vegetative materials (higher plants and algae (Ref. 52307). Probably a pair-bonding, open (Ref. 52307) substrate brooder/spawner (Ref. 52307, 81260), with both parents guarding the brood (Ref. 52307).

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisk nivå (Ref.
69278): 2.6 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliens (Ref.
