Maturity: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 11.6 cm TL 雄魚/尚未辨別雌雄; (Ref. 32272)
背棘 (總數) : 9 - 13; 背的軟條 (總數) : 11 - 15; 臀棘: 3; 臀鰭軟條: 9 - 11; 脊椎骨: 27 - 30. Diagnosis: A small elongated species with a terminal mouth (Ref. 118638). Mature males have dark-edged dorsal and anal fins, iridescent blue-white spots on flanks, white lower lips, and a spotted caudal fin with a pink edge; they appear to be colour polymorphic, with some males having yellow bellies and throats, while others are blue white: both morphs can be found in the same location and the colours are stable in aquarium-held specimens, suggesting it is a true polymorphism and not related to reproductive state (Ref. 118638). Females and non-territorial males are sandy-coloured, pale ventrally, sometimes with faint vertical bars (Ref. 118638).
成熟的雌性有一個整體的金色; 雄性有側面一藍灰色與下面唇的側面部份腫大而色彩豔麗的。 在鱗片上的完整的顏色藍色的斑點中變成彩虹色。 生殖乳突在成熟的雄魚中是錐形﹐突出的與黃色的, 比較不突出, 但是腫大的在成熟的母魚中。 在頰 3-4 上的鱗片列. 眶前骨只有 4個孔與沒有鱗片。 (參考文獻 4967)
Occurs at a temperature range of 30-32°C (Ref. 2). It feeds actively in the early morning; mainly on algae as well as copepods and dipterous larvae (Ref. 2). A maternal mouthbrooder: males excavate pits in the substrate in shallow water (Ref. 2, 118638). The species is occasionally caught as a food fish in its natural range; although it attains a small size, its tolerance of hostile environments may make it suitable for culture in high salinity environments; potential as an aquarium fish (Ref. 118638). Classed as endangered, due to its restricted distribution (Ref. 118638).
生存在一個 30-32 °C 的溫差。 (參考文獻 2) 活躍地在清晨中為食; 主要吃藻類以及橈腳類的動物與雙翅目昆蟲幼生.(參考文獻 2)
Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturities | 繁殖 | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | 仔魚
Early in the morning before taking possession of their pits, the males feed on slimy algal growths-noisily; sexual activity is greater after noon than before; young male may build a small pit around that of a larger male and mate there with a small female (Ref. 2). Males prepare and guard nests, while females migrate from one nest to another; males guard the nest against juveniles of their own species and other species which feed on the fertilized eggs which fall from the mouth of the female mouth brooder (Ref. 11288).
