Life Cycle
provided by Fishbase
Distinct pairing (Ref. 205).
Migration
provided by Fishbase
Potamodromous. Migrating within streams, migratory in rivers, e.g. Saliminus, Moxostoma, Labeo. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.
Trophic Strategy
provided by Fishbase
Found in rivers and canals. Feeds on small fish and insects (Ref. 4833). Carnivore (Ref. 56237).

Biology

Eutropiichthys vacha
provided by wikipedia EN
Eutropiichthys vacha is a species of schilbid catfish native to India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh.[1][2] It can reach a length of 34 cm, and a mass of 1.35 kg. Eutropiichthys vacha is a climate sensitive species that may be selected as a target species for climate change impact studies. Region-specific adaptation was noticed in breeding phenology of this schilbid catfish in River Ganga, based on local trends of warming climate. A threshold water temperature around 24 °C and rainfall of> 100 mm were found to be necessary for attainment of breeding GSI (> 3.5 units) in E. vacha. It appears that warming climate may have the most profound effect on gonad maturation and spawning in E. vacha.[3]
