Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 4.6 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 36377 )

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Grows larger in aquaria, the largest being a male measuring 4.65 cm SL (Ref. 9088 ). Eggs are deposited on the ceiling of caves and are tendered by the female parent (Ref. 2060 ).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Produces 40-60 eggs. All Apistogramma species build caves for spawning, the eggs are attached to the ceiling. Female tends the clutch (Ref. 2060 ).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01995 (0.01095 - 0.03636), b=2.95 (2.80 - 3.10), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  3.3   ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Fec=40-60). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
