Dark Chub

Nipponocypris temminckii (Temminck & Schlegel 1846)

Life Cycle

provided by Fishbase
Fish gather in shallow parts of rivers for spawning. A male presses laterally against a female and stirs up the river bed by vibrating his anal fin to bury released eggs. Satellites commonly cannibalize eggs (Ref. 5514).
