Reported from Vietnam. Trade restricted in Germany. Several countries reported adverse ecological impact after introduction. Short description Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 7 - 9; Anal spines: 0; Anal soft rays: 8 - 10. Anatomy of the pharyngeal apparatus is the main distinguishing characteristic; throat teeth typically form a single row of 4-5 large molariform teeth on each of the two arches, with formula typically 1,4 - 4,1. Biology Inhabits rivers. Maximum age probably exceeds 15 years; the figure of 20 years is not supported by data. Eggs are pelagic or semipelagic and hatch while drifting downstream. Larvae feed on zooplankton, then on ostracods and aquatic insects. At about 120 mm SL, juveniles start to feed on small snails and clams; larger juveniles and adults feed almost entirely on molluscs. Feeds mainly on mussels and snails, also on aquatic insects and crustaceans. Under experimentation for aquaculture in the USA. Nuptial males have breeding tubercles on head and dorsal fins.
