Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 5.8 cm SL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 37395)
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Very abundant. Lives in the upper reaches of rivers (Ref. 35381). Frequently occurs over sandy bottoms traversed by strong currents. Most probably lives in schools as it is often captured in groups (Ref. 27188). Often found with C. approuaguensis and C. cf. brevirostris (Ref. 35381).

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.00906 - 0.04395), b=3.01 (2.83 - 3.19), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nivel trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.0 ±0.3 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliencia (Ref.
120179): Alto, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo inferior a 15 meses (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
