Occurs in most coastal basins in West Africa (Ref. 2703). Within this species complex, four distinct waveforms of electric organ discharge (EOD) were noted in the Gabon (Ivindo River) populations, probably pointing to separate species (Ref. 10460). Exhibits sexual dimorphism in its EOD waveform and duration (Ref. 10011; 10764 ). EOD has a constant waveform and variable sequence of pulse intervals (SPI) (Ref. 55567).

It occurs mostly in shallow marginal water among aquatic macrophytes and in swamp pools. Feeds primarily on benthic invetebrates and detritus. Is considered a micropredator and an "aufwuchs browser" (Ref. 42232).
