ຊີວະສາດ     ຄຳແປສັບ (ຕ.ຢ. epibenthic)

Hardy, prefers quiet, well-vegetated waters in lakes, swamps, and marshes or marginal areas of larger rivers and slow-flowing streams (Ref. 7248, 52193). In shallow, inshore areas of Lake Victoria especially where bottom is sandy (Ref. 4903). Bottom feeder (Ref. 12526), it feeds on a wide variety of small organisms including insects, small snails and crustaceans, algae, diatoms, and detritus (Ref. 7248, 52193). Eaten by large predators like the sharptooth catfish, tigerfish, largemouth breams (Serranochromis species) and birds (Ref. 7248, 52193). Spawns amongst vegetation during summer (Ref. 7248, 52193), in river and streams during rainy season in Lake Victoria basin (Ref. 4903).
