Found to exhibit parasitic traits (Ref. 6868). Inhabits rivers with sandy to muddy bottom.
Forages both during the day and at night seeks the gill chambers of larger fishes, especially catfishes. Enters and leaves the gill chamber during the host's ventilating movements: feeds on blood drawn from the gill filaments and may stay in the gill chamber for 1-3 min; when gorged with blood, moves to the bottom and buries itself in the sand. A single large catfish tethered on the river bank may feed thousand of these parasitic catfish over a period of up to 6 hours. Two females, 1.8 cm TL, caught in January (wet season) had about 150 mature oocytes each, and one male 2.0 cm TL had well-developed testes. Large numbers of this fish may kill fishes tethered by fishermen (Ref. 40386).
發現展現寄生的特徵。 (參考文獻 6868) 棲息於河底部為砂質或泥質的地方。
覓食兩者在白天期間而在夜晚尋找較大的魚的鰓室, 尤其鯰魚。 在寄主的換氣運動的時候進入而且離開鰓室: 吃被取自鰓絲的血液而且可能停留在鰓室中在 1-3 分鐘之中; 當吃飽血液, 移動到底部而且掩藏於沙子中。 在河岸上被鍊栓的一個大的鯰魚可能吃成千的這些個寄生的鯰魚超過 6 小時。 二個雌性 , 1.8 公分TL,在有大約 150個成熟的卵母細胞的一月 (濕季) 捕獲了每個, 與一個雄魚 2.0 公分TL 有了發展良好的睪丸。 許多的這一個魚可能殺被漁夫鍊栓的魚。 (參考文獻 40386)
