Body shape (shape guide): elongated.
Inhabits mangrove swamps and highly saline creeks flowing into estuaries, usually swimming over muddy bottom. Often congregate in large numbers. May be found in hypersaline waters (28-40 ppt) and in relatively high temperatures (22-31°C). Breeding has been achieved in aquaria; the eggs take about two weeks to hatch and young fish reach adulthood in only three months (Ref. 44894). A small but attractive species.
