Biologia     Glossario (es. epibenthic)

Found in sluggish and standing water. A common species proliferating in impoundments. Most abundant during the rainy season. Feeds on invertebrates (Ref. 12693), worms and crustaceans (Ref. 7020). Breeds everywhere during the rains. Builds a nest and guards its young. Rare in markets and often found in the aquarium trade (Ref. 12693). Aquarium keeping: in groups of 5 or more individuals; minimum aquarium size 60 cm (Ref. 51539).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01318 (0.00957 - 0.01816), b=2.96 (2.89 - 3.03), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.32 se; based on food items.
Generation time: 2.6 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.
Resilienza (Ref. 120179):  Alto, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione meno di 15 mesi (Preliminary K or Fecundity. Fec=500.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (28 of 100).
Price category (Ref. 80766):   Low.
Nutrients (Ref. 124155):  Calcium = 678 [434, 1,182] mg/100g; Iron = 1.63 [1.04, 2.50] mg/100g; Protein = 16.8 [15.2, 18.6] %; Omega3 = 0.172 [0.079, 0.380] g/100g; Selenium = 26.3 [10.5, 59.5] μg/100g; VitaminA = 72.5 [35.1, 147.7] μg/100g; Zinc = 2.32 [1.66, 3.18] mg/100g (wet weight); based on nutrient studies.
