Found in a wide variety of habitats, especially where there is vegetation (Ref. 52193), in shallow water near river outlets or close to swampy areas (Ref. 5595). It feeds on insects and other small organisms (Ref. 52193). Used as bait for the tigerfish (Ref. 7248). Breeds in summer, shoals of ripe adults moving upstream in spate after rain; females produce as many as 8,000 eggs (Ref. 7248, 52193).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01413 (0.00779 - 0.02563), b=2.99 (2.84 - 3.14), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 3.2 ±0.39 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Hög, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid mindre än 15 månader (K=1.40).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
