Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 30.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 5715)

Life cycle and mating behavior
Geschlechtsreife | Fortpflanzung | Ablaichen | Eier | Fecundity | Larven
Guards offspring for more than 3 weeks. Young become independent when they reach 3.8-4.0 cm SL and are able to move around as solitary hunters in the rocky habitats.
