has an annual mode of reproduction, typical of the genus. Eggs are deposited in the habitat substrate, where they survive the dry season and hatch with the onset of the wet season. Under captive conditions, peat moss was used successfully as an artificial spawning substrate. An embryonic development period of three to five months was observed at a temperature of about 22–24 °C.
