Length at first maturity / Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturity: Lm ?, range 8 - ? cm
Max length : 15.0 cm mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 12693)
Inhabits relatively still waters (Ref. 12693). Most frequently found in rivers, streams and estuaries. Ovoviviparous (Ref. 205). The male carries the eggs in a brood pouch which is found under the tail (Ref. 205). Males maybe brooding at 7.8 cm SL (Ref. 5316). Feeds on worms, crustaceans and small zooplankton. Not seen in markets (Ref. 12693).
