Found near the surface and among weeds in which it seeks refuge and food (Ref. 5595). Prefers standing or gently flowing water as in river backwaters, floodplains (Ref. 7248), swamps (Ref. 7248, 47311), creeks and pools (Ref. 47311). Usually found in small shoals near the surface, among fringing vegetation; usually abundant when present (Ref. 47311, 52193). It feeds on small invertebrates like mosquito larvae and daphnia (Ref. 52193). A serial spawner, laying eggs which attach to vegetation (Ref. 52193). When food is abundant, breeding occurs daily over an extended period (year-round where conditions are suitable) (Ref. 7248, 52193). 6 cm max TL (Ref. 3788). Not a seasonal killifish. Is difficult to maintain in aquarium (Ref. 27139).
發現於靠近表面了與在雜草之中在它尋找藏身處與食物.(參考文獻 5595) 偏愛持續或逐漸地流動水當在河洄水區,洪泛區與沼澤中。 通常發現於小的淺灘。 吃像蚊蟲幼生與水蚤的小型無脊椎動物。 一隻連續的產卵魚,生下吸附到植物的卵。 當食物很豐富的時候,繁殖每日出現經過一長段時間 (全年環境是適當的地方) 。 (參考文獻 7248) 6 公分最大 TL.(參考文獻 3788) 不是一個季節性的鱂科魚類。 在水族館是難以維持。 (參考文獻 27139)
