Maturity: L_m 10.0 range ? - ? cm
Max length : 47.5 cm SL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 36377)

An open water swimmer. Feeds mainly on other live fishes, usually the prolific Astyanax, but also on shrimps and crabs (Ref. 36377). Eggs and larvae are guarded by the female (Ref. 40602). Male defends the territory (Ref. 40602).

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

Deposit several thousand eggs on open, preferably horizontal substrate; male defends territory and female guards eggs; larvae are guarded by the female (Ref. 40602). Females reach sexual maturity at 10 cm, males at 15 cm (Ref. 2060).
