Description of life cycle and mating behavior | Sexes separate. Spawning occurs in the cool season, from June to November. Growth is relatively rapid (about 7 to 8 cm in the first year), but the number of individuals reaching a 3 or 4 years age is small, because of a high rate of natural mortality. |
