Adults inhabit vegetated spring-fed pools and marshes. They occur in Salt Creek, a spring-fed flowing stream of high salinity during most of the year, dries in summer to a series of marshes (Ref. 5723). Not a seasonal killifish. Is very difficult to maintain in aquarium (Ref. 27139). Migratory behaviour is undetermined (Ref. 126106).
