Occurs in standing or slow-flowing pools with a soft or rocky bottom. Thrives in dams and tolerates turbid waters. Juveniles occur in large shoals, adults in small groups. Feeds off the substrate on algae and detritus. Breeds in summer, moving into riffle areas to lay eggs (Ref. 7248).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00525 (0.00226 - 0.01220), b=3.11 (2.90 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 2.0 ±0.00 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 4.2 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resiliência (Ref.
120179): Elevada, tempo mínimo de duplicação da população menor que 15 meses (K=0.26; tm=1; tmax=3).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low to moderate vulnerability (35 of 100).
