Discussion

  • Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only

Facts

  • This fish lives in shallow water and remains attached to the substrate for most of the time except when breeding.They feed on small fish and invertebrates. Eggs are laid in a "nest" that is made in relatively shallow water by the male. The male also guards and cares for the eggs by fanning them with his fins during the month-long incubation period. It is often caught for the roe, made into an inexpensive caviar. (Ref: Wiki)
