According to aquarists, the species prefers live food. Thought to be extinct in the wild as their spring area has been claimed. Males can be recognized by a notched anal fin.

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.6250 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 2.0 ±0.1 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilienza (Ref.
120179): Basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione 4.5 - 14 anni (Assuming Fec<100 per year, with several breeds of about 10 pups.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
