Goby Of Streams

The male guards the clutch only as long as the young have not hatched.

Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).

Found in brackish waters (mangrove) and rivers (Ref. 4833). Feed on small fishes and invertebrates (Ref. 12693). Relative length of gut is 1.75 (Ref. 54955).

Found in shallow-water estuarine, estuaries of rivers, streams and mangroves, at depths of 0–1 m, especially in mangrove habitats (Ref. 126575). Adults also found in the sea (Ref. 4833). Feed on small fishes and invertebrates (Ref. 12693).
