Occurs mainly in rocky areas but also lives in intermediate zone (Ref. 5595). Juveniles feed mainly on aufwuchs and plankton, but specimens up to 5 cm SL clean, scrape fungi from other species (Ref. 267), while adults feed on skin of catfish (Bagrus meridionalis) and scales of larger fishes (Ref. 5595).
