Oviparous, eggs are unguarded (Ref. 205). Probably of economic importance locally for fishermen of Lake Tumba; maximum reported TL 280mm (Ref. 43912). De Vos, L. 1986 Schilbeidae. p. 36-53. In J.

Schilbe tumbanus shows some affinities with the sympatric species S. grenfelli which also has the anterior nostrils closer to each other than the posterior ones, but S. tumbanus is easily distinguished from this species by the longer nasal barbel always reaching beyond the orbit, while never reaching beyond the posterior border of the eye in S. grenfelli (Ref. 43912).Coloration: preserved specimens: head and back brown-black; flanks somewhat paler, sometimes more or less irregularly stained; belly ventrally whitish, laterally speckled; all fins more or less greyish speckled (Ref. 43912). In life: grey-bluish, with pale blue-green metallic reflections; back and head darker, paler ventrally; unclear, dark post-opercular spot; eye greyish golden with green reflection; fins greyish, more or less dark, especially dorsal, caudal and pectoral fins (based on Matthes 1964; Ref. 43912).
