Short description  
Biology Adults found mainly in ponds, ditches, swamps and marshes, but sometimes occur in muddy rivers. Can tolerate slightly brackish water. Omnivorous.

Oviparous, distinct pairing possibly like other members of the same family. In great demand due to its medicinal value. Venomous fish, from its pectoral spines.
