Max length : 48.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 7248); peso máximo publicado: 2.9 kg (Ref. 5693); edad máxima reportada: 7 años (Ref. 7248)

Prefers deep main river channels and floodplain lagoons (Ref. 7248) with sandy bottoms (Ref. 7248, 52307). Feeds primarily on snails, bivalves and insect larvae (Ref. 7248, 52307), rarely also on fish or plants (Ref. 52307).
