depth) with variable but mainly moderate current and rocky or sandy substrates, usually without aquatic vegetation. Juveniles and subadults prefer shallow waters with rocky bottoms, sand, silt and mud in rivers and streams with swift to slow currents, usually without aquatic vegetation but covered by riverine vegetation. Also inhabits lakes and reservoirs. The species is also tolerant to sulphidic environments; it has been recorded in El Azufre and Baños del Carmen, municipalities of Tecpatán and Venustiano Carranza, respectively, both in
