Discussion

  • Males are assumed not to differ from females

Facts

  • length-weight: W in g = 0.00204*(TL in cm)^3.00 (Ref: fishbase)
  • Central and South America: lower portions of coastal rivers from Venezuela to northern Brazil (Ref: fishbase)
  • The adhesive eggs attach to the female's underside, where she carries them until hatching (Ref: aqua-fish)
