Biologi     Ordlista (t.ex. epibenthic)

Typical of quiet water, occurring in freshwaters of estuaries and coastal swamps. Digs into the muddy substrate looking for food which includes fruit seeds, crustaceans and insects (Ref. 35237). Maximum length 25 cm TL (Ref. 7020).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | Reproduktion | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larver

Ovophile mouth brooders. The parent fish clean the rocky substrate prior to spawning. Incubation takes place in the mouth. Juveniles use the mouth as their shelter for several weeks, where they attach themselves to the palate, by means of a specific gland (Ref. 35237).
