Shell-brooding cichlid found in low-density shell areas; greedy eater, feeding mainly on insect larvae (Ref. 46829). Lives on sandy bottom with snail shells wich are burried in the sand and used as shelter and for depositing the eggs (Ref. 52467). Found between 5 m and 40 m deep (Ref. 93961).
Ciclo de vida ou comportamento de acasalamento
Maturidade | Reprodução | Desova | Ovos | Fecundidade | Larvas
Eggs are deposited in the snail shell that is inhabited by the female. The female guards and ventilates the eggs. Larve emerge after about 10 days and wander between the shells of their parents (Ref. 52467).
